We consider Human Factors as an integral part of safety management, necessary to understand, identify and mitigate risks as well as to optimise the human contribution to organisational safety. The Human Factors for Safety course developed by Deep Blue aims to assist companies that seek to strengthen their safety culture, and efficiently integrate Human and Organisational Factors (HOF) into Safety and Management System (SMS).
