Studies by high-risk industries indicate that human error-the human element is often a contributing cause of incidents. In these industries, identifying and addressing the human element of safety is referred to as human performance. In this article, human-performance theory will be discussed, human-performance modes will be identified, and human-performance tools will be applied with the objective of changing and advancing the electrical safety culture.
