Published by Wiley-AIChE in collaboration with the Energy Institute (EI), this 480-page text serves as a practical, foundational blueprint for engineers, plant managers, and safety supervisors. It addresses a critical industry need by translating the abstract science of human factors into actionable, front-line engineering practices to eliminate operational errors and minimize system failures.Human Performance and Error Management: Explores the underlying concepts of how and why plant personnel behave and perform under varied conditions. It details structural methods to safely anticipate, manage, and mitigate common human errors.Optimizing Job Aids: Provides detailed instructions for selecting, formatting, and developing the content of critical job aids. This includes writing foolproof checklists, troubleshooting trees, and standard operating procedures (SOPs).Ergonomics and Equipment Design: Bridges the gap between equipment manufacturing and physical users. It guides managers on how to incorporate basic human mechanics, anthropometrics, and cognitive psychology straight into control room layouts, valve positioning, and alarm systems.Determining Competency Requirements: Lays out rigorous metrics for establishing clear operational competency standards across complex processing networks. It trains teams to build systematic, high-fidelity safety behaviors during routine maintenance as well as high-stress plant disruptions.
