My newly published book is the first to methodically tackle a class of safety function failure types that were causal contributors to mass casualty events and billions of dollars in regulatory and legal exposures. Failures in human dependent safety functions remain persistent contributors to major industrial accidents. My book presents solutions to methodically identify and mitigate the designed-in and operate-phase sources of those failures. Get a free download of Chapters 1 and 8 for insights. Inside you’ll learn about…• A new and innovative design and lifecycle model dedicated to human-dependent safety critical functions and tasks (conceptual design <> operations & maintenance). This is the only published model that is fully guided by cognitive ergonomics and cognitive science. Learn how the model...• Directly responds to the needs and critical deficiencies identified in call-to-action white papers and articles from industry organizations and experts. • Integrates elements and guidance from CCPS, CIEHF, EI, IOGP, globally recognized experts (Endsley, Flin, Kahneman, Klein, Hollnagel, Reason, Salas, others), and industry standards (IEC 61511, ISO 11064, NORSOK, others).• Makes extensive use of explanations, examples, tools, analysis, case studies, and foundational support materials to enhance the reader's understanding of each model process. • Employs new and adaptations to existing processes: cognitive, training-needs and competency assessments, team & workspace design, PIFs, performance standards, V&V, many others.• Encompasses remote support and Remote Operation Centers (Integrated Operations).In addition, Chapter 8 examines acute deficiencies in commonly used industry standards and presents a novel case and path forward for developing a new global consensus standard dedicated to human dependent safety functions and tasks.So, who is this book written for?• Oil & Gas, petrochemical, transmission pipelines, fuel storage & distribution, and other highly hazardous industries. • Those who design, operate, and maintain human-dependent, safety critical tasks, functions and barriers.• Owner/operators• Engineering design and consulting companies • Functional safety practitioners (IEC 61511)• Regulatory agencies• Industry organizations• Accident investigators• Researchers and academicsTo purchase the book and access the free chapters, see https://www.routledge.com/Human-Barrier-Design-and-Lifecycle-A-Cognitive-Ergonomics-Approach-and/Shephard/p/book/9781032655949.
