Book Description
Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Sociology - Work, Education, Organisation, grade: 90%, University of Newcastle, course: Masters Of Aviation Management, language: English, abstract: To manage risks and errors, there must be a good understanding, not just as to what has happened but why did it happen in order to determine the root problems and causes. Using the Reason model (Reason, 1991), investigations into these occurrences are made possible to provide the basis for identifying threats, flawed defense mechanism and conducting unsafe organizational conditionals. It makes sense as a continuum effort to manage aviation maintenance errors and risks to enhance safety and performance in the long term through identifying them and implanting vital defenses. A safety culture can foster these safe activities by creating trust and dialogue between management and individuals within a maintenance repair organization (MRO). The good safety culture aspects are pervasively within the shared attitudes of concern and care in the MRO and involves with the management. Surrounding this open atmosphere, there should have systems that share important data whereby the workforce are encouraged to make reports with trust and fairness. One shared concensus on collecting these data is by implementing of maintenance error management system (MEMS). Implications of active and latent failures and the benefits of maintenance resource training (MRM) are further discussed.

Managing Maintenance Error
Author: James Reason
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1351920510
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
Situations and systems are easier to change than the human condition - particularly when people are well-trained and well-motivated, as they usually are in maintenance organisations. This is a down-to-earth practitioner’s guide to managing maintenance error, written in Dr. Reason’s highly readable style. It deals with human risks generally and the special human performance problems arising in maintenance, as well as providing an engineer’s guide for their understanding and the solution. After reviewing the types of error and violation and the conditions that provoke them, the author sets out the broader picture, illustrated by examples of three system failures. Central to the book is a comprehensive review of error management, followed by chapters on:- managing person, the task and the team; - the workplace and the organization; - creating a safe culture; It is then rounded off and brought together, in such a way as to be readily applicable for those who can make it work, to achieve a greater and more consistent level of safety in maintenance activities. The readership will include maintenance engineering staff and safety officers and all those in responsible roles in critical and systems-reliant environments, including transportation, nuclear and conventional power, extractive and other chemical processing and manufacturing industries and medicine.

Risk Management and Error Reduction in Aviation Maintenance
Author: Manoj S. Patankar
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351903047
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
Although several U.S. and European airlines have started providing human factors training to their maintenance personnel, the academic community (some 300 academic programs in the United States and several others in Europe and Asia) has not yet started offering formal human factors education to maintenance students. The highly respected authors strongly believe in incorporating the human factors principles in aviation maintenance. This is the first of two volumes providing effective behavioural guidance on risk management in aviation maintenance for both the novice and the experienced maintenance personnel. Its practical guidelines assist both student and practising aviation maintenance personnel to develop sustainable safety culture. For the maintenance community it provides some theoretical discussion about the "Why?" for risk management and then focus on the 'How?' to implement a successful error reduction program. To help the maintenance community in making a strong case to their financial managers, the authors also discuss the return on investment for risk management programs. The issue of risk management is taken at two levels. First, it provides a basic awareness information to those who have little or no knowledge of maintenance human factors. Second, it provides a set of practical tools for the more experienced people so that they can be more effective in risk management and error recovery in their jobs. This invaluable book serves as a practical guide as well as an academic textbook. The book covers fundamental human factors principles from a risk management perspective. Upon reading this informative book, the audience will be able to apply the basic principles of risk management to aviation maintenance environment, and they will be able to use low-risk behaviours in their daily work.

Managing the Risks of Organizational Accidents
Author: James Reason
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1134855354
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Major accidents are rare events due to the many barriers, safeguards and defences developed by modern technologies. But they continue to happen with saddening regularity and their human and financial consequences are all too often unacceptably catastrophic. One of the greatest challenges we face is to develop more effective ways of both understanding and limiting their occurrence. This lucid book presents a set of common principles to further our knowledge of the causes of major accidents in a wide variety of high-technology systems. It also describes tools and techniques for managing the risks of such organizational accidents that go beyond those currently available to system managers and safety professionals. James Reason deals comprehensively with the prevention of major accidents arising from human and organizational causes. He argues that the same general principles and management techniques are appropriate for many different domains. These include banks and insurance companies just as much as nuclear power plants, oil exploration and production companies, chemical process installations and air, sea and rail transport. Its unique combination of principles and practicalities make this seminal book essential reading for all whose daily business is to manage, audit and regulate hazardous technologies of all kinds. It is relevant to those concerned with understanding and controlling human and organizational factors and will also interest academic readers and those working in industrial and government agencies.

Applied Human Factors in Aviation Maintenance
Author: Manoj S. Patankar
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351957678
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 147
Book Description
Considering the global awareness of human performance issues affecting maintenance personnel, there is enough evidence in the US ASRS reports to establish that systemic problems such as impractical maintenance procedures, inadequate training, and the safety versus profit challenge continue to contribute toward latent failures. Manoj S. Patankar and James C. Taylor strongly believe in incorporating the human factors principles in aviation maintenance. In this, their second of two volumes, they place particular emphasis on applying human factors principles in a book intended to serve as a practical guide, as well as an academic text. Features include: - A real 'how to' approach that serves as a companion to the previous volume: 'Risk Management and Error Reduction in Aviation Maintenance'. - Self-reports of maintenance errors used throughout to illustrate the systemic susceptibility for errors as well as to discuss corresponding solutions. - Two tools - a pre-task scorecard and a post-task scorecard - introduced as means to measure individual as well as organizational safety performance. - Interpersonal trust and professionalism explored in detail. - Ethical and procedural issues associated with collection and analysis of both qualitative as well as quantitative safety data discussed. The intended readership includes aviation maintenance personnel, e.g. FAA-type aircraft mechanics, CAA-type aircraft maintenance engineers, maintenance managers, regulators, and aviation students.
