The Science of Safety: Exploring Human Factors

Wednesday, October 2, 2024 | 11 AM - 11:45 AM ET

Human factors reflect the way our brains are wired and how we perceive and interact with the world around us. They affect our ability to make sound decisions, blinding us to the hazards when we think we’re being safe. They are a key factor in worker safetyperformance, which is why it is important to be aware of their potential impact on the decisions and actions we, our colleagues, and our teams, make every day to keep each other safe.
