Summary
Drawing together academic evidence and practical experience to produce a framework for safety measurement and monitoring.
Content
This framework highlights the following five dimensions, which the authors believe should be included in any safety and monitoring approach in order to give a comprehensive and rounded picture of an organisation’s safety:
- Past harm: this encompasses both psychological and physical measures
- Reliability: this is defined as ‘failure free operation over time’ and applies to measures of behaviour, processes and systems
- Sensitivity to operations: the information and capacity to monitor safety on an hourly or daily basis
- Anticipation and preparedness: the ability to anticipate, and be prepared for, problems
- Integration and learning: the ability to respond to, and improve from, safety information.
