Description

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Did you know that the Human Factors and Ergonomics

Society has 24 technical groups that are concerned with the human factors aspects of specific application areas?

One of those is the Safety Technical Group

The Safety Technical Group consists of individuals interested in research and applications
concerning safety-related human factors issues. Example application areas include
transportation, aerospace, offices, public areas and buildings,
and home environments.

Human factors specialists in the field of safety are involved in the mitigation of hazards from
human, machine, and environmental sources.

Hazard identification, evaluation, and management are the basic steps toward a goal of providing safe and healthful working conditions and products.

Practitioners may be involved in job studies and design, equipment design, personnel protection, and environmental controls, among other functions.
