Ep213: Human Factors, Error, Blame & Systems Thinking, with A/Prof Gemma Read
Safety on Tap
We are now realising that just focussing on preventing bad stuff is a pretty limited view of health and safety, and that many of our approaches are limited in the application and the quality of their outputs. So how would we broaden out focus to study and improve normal work? It turns out there are theories, models, and people who've doing this for 80 years. Allow me to introduce Human Factors, Ergonomics, and Systems Thinking. Hey, it’s Andrew, and this is Safety on Tap.

Industrial and organisational psychology, or IO psych as it is often called, is well over 100 years old. It was labelled as the exploration of 'real life' psychology. It's official birth is suggested to be 1913, with the publication of the first text on the subject called Psychology and Industrial Efficiency, by Hugo Munsterberg.
How is it that such a field, with 100 years of history and research and development, is not that familiar to most of us working in health and safety?

Diya has experience in both consulting and working in-house, and is currently in a organisational psychology role focussed on organisational wellbeing in the Victorian State Government.
