Human factors affect all areas of our lives—professionally and personally—and they are influenced by how we respond when faced with stressors. But what is the impact beyond safety? For organizations, other desired outcomes like improved production, less downtime, better retention, increased engagement and communication can be achieved by learning how to better manage human factors both corporately and individually. So it would only make sense if you want to impact the overall culture and produce a happier workforce which in turn improves interpersonal relationships and communications on and off the job, you need to focus on human factors management and 24/7 safety.
