In September 2013, the ERA-NET Saf€ra launched a European call for scientific proposals on industrial safety: “Human and organizational factors including the value of industrial safety”, divided into two topics entitled “Resilience: improving management of safety” and “Value of safety and safety values”.

Resilience : Improving management of safety

Resilience is a concept introduced ten years ago. The work carried out as part of Saf€ra proposes its implementation through various industrial safety practices: integrating the concept of resilience into risk analysis methods, understanding disaster aversion and its impact on the establishment of regulations, and training managers of resilient organizations.

Objective

How to integrate resilience concepts into the “bow-tie” risk analysis tool, and more specifically into an implementation used by the RIVM to analyze numerous occupational accidents in the Netherlands..
