MKOC1116 – 19FSO(1) – 1182 Human Factors Engineering and Offshore Drilling
November 13, 2018 @ 8:00 am - November 14, 2018 @ 4:30 pm
Description
This course is intended to provide an overview of Human Factors Engineering (HFE) for those working in industrial settings. The contents of the course specifically contains information about: the methods and measures used to document when HFE has been effectively implemented; examples of safety and efficiency benefits of HFE; and the differences between HFE, Safety Culture, and Human Error. Much of the course is participatory and discussion based. The first day of the course will involve presentations and activities that illustrate the fundamentals of HFE. As part of the second day, attendees will workshop a solution to a current HFE design problems with a group.
