Investigations and Safety Surveys
Investigations and Safety Surveys
Most safety-critical organisations have systems for event reporting, incident investigation, and lesson learning.
However, even mature systems related to these functions face several challenges and safety experts agree that traditional approaches to improving safety are coming up against the laws of diminishing returns.
QOE looks towards other leading safety indicators to help them understand safety and human performance.
Our experience in Safety Survey methodology allows us to look at good practices by all operational staff in various aviation environments.
