Decoding Systems Failure in Safety Management
This podcast explores the concept of organizations as systems, consisting of interconnected subsystems and the challenges and intricacies of managing safety within this complex web of systems. Gain a fresh perspective on incident and accident investigations, and why simply attributing blame to human error may not be sufficient.
We explore the importance of looking beyond surface-level causes and adopting a lateral, holistic approach to understanding system failures. Listeners are encouraged to become systems thinkers, embracing the complexity of their organizations and adopting a more comprehensive approach to safety management. By expanding their understanding of system behavior and interaction, safety professionals can better identify potential risks and devise effective preventive measures.
