Common Concerns with Human Factor Implementation

We have been helping businesses around the world with their human factor processes and procedures, so we understand the issues many of them have. These are some of the most common concerns we come across during our initial consultation period:

Lack of Internal Capability

Incorporating human factors into the day-to-day running of your business requires a certain level of expertise. It’s not something that can be done overnight, and many businesses simply don’t have enough human factors experts on their team. Those that they do have may lack the experience required to introduce and manage new processes and systems or may not have the skills or tools to do so. Knowing what needs to be done to introduce human factors into your business is one thing; finding the time and resources to do so is quite another.

Complying with Legislation

Like all internal business procedures, any human factors processes must be fully documented to comply with existing legislation or industry regulations. While knowing what human factors mean for your business is a good start, not all companies have the expertise to ensure that their procedures are up to scratch. Some systems may be underdeveloped, or their documentation might be incomplete. If you get audited by a government or industry regulator, are you adequately prepared? After all, in most sectors, it’s only a matter of time before an official audit is triggered.

Lack of Specialist Knowledge

Human factors and ergonomics cover a broad skillset that can be applied to many industries, but those skills aren’t always applicable to every sector. When you work in oil and gas, nuclear power, or the defence sector, it’s essential that you pair an understanding of human factors with expert insider knowledge. Even if you have your own in-house experts, do they have the time to train and upskill the rest of your team, or are they too busy implementing and managing your existing processes?

What Horizon Human Factors Can Do For You

With decades of experience providing human factors solutions to the nuclear, defence, and petrochemical industries, we have much to offer our global network of clients. These are just some of the ways we can help:

Training and Implementation

You know from your own experience with human factors and ergonomics just what needs to be done, but implementing it is not always that easy. It involves a massive amount of work to implement new processes and to give your team the knowledge required to handle them. At Horizon Human Factors, we work closely with your internal teams, developing fast and efficient processes and the training needed for your staff to implement them. We create and deliver bespoke training courses, integrating fully skilled human factors engineers into your business.

Process and Documentation Developments

Poorly defined processes and documentation leave your company at risk of sanctions and penalties if they fail to meet legal or regulatory standards. We can work directly with your engineers to ensure that your systems and processes are fit for purpose and that your documentation complies with all existing legislation. We provide a clear roadmap for your team, easing their workload and improving productivity. We pay meticulous attention to detail, making sure that no stone is left unturned.
