Human factors
Senior managers are often least confident about making decisions in areas where human factors are a major consideration.
CAS helps clients identify the human factors affecting operational performance and develop a coherent approach to tackling these.
Our work in this area encompasses:
-
Developing human factors policies and strategies which support safe and efficient operations.
- Analysis of human factors requirements of new systems.
- Integrating human factors requirements in system design, development and implementation.
- Cognitive skills training. Selection of safety critical staff.
- Attitude tests for new entrants to safety critical work environments.
We offer a number of tools specifically designed to assess the adequacy of current arrangements for managing the risks associated with issues such as fatigue, recruitment and selection, team and job design.
