Opis

Traditional accident prevention strategies focus almost exclusively on the actions of front-line aviation personnel. This text argues for a broadened approach, which considers the influence of all organizations involved in aviation operations, in addition to individual human performance.

Recenzje

’This is serious and good stuff and should be compulsory reading for every accident investigator and for safety officers of any technology-based organization.’ Aerospace ’This important volume will be of relevance to all operational aviation management, technical and non-technical personnel in aviation, other transportation and high technology production industries.’ Occupational Safety and Health ’...provides a clear insight into the sequence of circumstances that can occur and cause an accident to happen. In this the book is enlightening and more than a little worrying.’ Ergonomics Abstracts ’...makes fascinating reading from the first page to the last...Highly recommended!’ The Controller ’...very valuable because it described an alternative methodology for investigating accidents and provided sufficient information to allow the reader to think about strategy for considering the role of latent organizational failures.’ Aviation, Space and Environmental Medicine
