Human factors for pilots - Safety culture

Safety behaviours: Human factors for pilots - 2nd edition
Safety culture
The beliefs, attitudes, norms and values that people within an organisation share are described as the organisational culture. Informally, you can describe culture as ‘the way we do things around here’.
Safety culture is an essential part of organisational culture: it affects the way the organisation manages safety and therefore, the ultimate effectiveness of its safety management system (SMS).
Every organisation has a safety culture, but some are better than others. Professor James Reason probably described it best. He said, ‘an ideal safety culture is the “engine” that drives the system towards the goal of sustaining the maximum resistance towards its operational hazards regardless of current commercial concerns or leadership style’.

So in what I do, we have short comings in quality of work. I am in manufacturing and things sometimes get made wrong. When that happens we find that there was an error, the client usually finds it or the quality team and then it is definitely someones fault. The team gets around the issue and as the problem is described we figure out who did it. That person is definitely found but what they are not is hated. Because we all know, next month it may be one of us that does it wrong in some form.
There are thousands of points of detail and it is super easy to just miss one. The most important thing is just finding out how we missed it. Our deliverable is quality and perfect dimension. In Aviation the deliverable is comfort and safety. Consider that a safety culture is just one where people are committed to delivering on the promise they give to the client and that it is not unprofessional or negligent for that to have gone wrong, it is part of the industry and it happens.
People get very emotional about safety, like a problem in safety procedures should never happen and it is morally wrong when it does. This is total BS. People do their best and sometimes that falls short. This is true in ALL areas of life. Parenting, finances, relationships, honesty and safety is just another area that it is to be expected that things will deviate from how they should be.
Acceptance of this allows people to find what causes the breach and then you address what made that happen. That is all that matters. It is just a commitment to doing a great job and staying away from the arrogance that a safety breach should never happen when it does.
