Why do good people like You Johnny Rush Northwest Aviation Training (Or I ) Make errors?
Our Belief Learningis finding out what you already know. Doingis demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know it just as well as you. We are all learners, doers and teachers. Richard Bach
The older I get, the more I realize that there are an ever increasing number of things that I know nothing about Gordon Dupont System Safety Services
Our objective • To introduce you to why we make errors and • To provide you some insights into how you can avoid making an error you never intended to make.
When you work • You carefully think out all the angles. • You've done it a thousand times. • It comes naturally to you. • You know what you're doing, its what you've been trained to do your whole life. • Nothing could possibly go wrong, right ?
Think Again And Again
What is Human Error? • Human Error is: “When the outcome of something we did or didn’t do, is not what we expected.” Gordon Dupont
errors The causes are to be found in whatever it was that interfered with the workers performance at a critical moment are not the cause of accidents. the outcome of which is a human error Jerome Lederer Flight Safety Foundation

But It’s Just Common Sense “Yea… I found it helps to let the air out of it first”
What about Common Sense? • Common sense is the collective wisdom of a group which results in an understanding or point of view shared by the majority of the group. • It is often made up of unwritten rules followed, often without question, by the majority of the group. • What we come to think is the right way to do things Gordon Dupont
Common Sensehas nothing to do with Human Factorsandis not that common
What are Human Factors? Don’t panic… These are for the neighbour’s daughter Factors, circumstances, situations that influence or cause us humans to do the things we do. Gordon Dupont
Why do we need Human Factors Training? “They”don’t want it” “We” can’t afford it” AND
Here’s Why • Human Failure is responsible for at least 80% of aviation’s accidents • 99.99+% of these failures are not intentional • Most persons who cause an error have no idea why they made the error • Lack of Knowledgeof what causes a person to make an error is one of the major contributing factors to the error. • Human Factors training gives him that Knowledge.

The Dirty Dozen (continued) 9 11 Lack of Assertiveness Lack of Awareness 10 Stress
Lack of Awareness? “Whatever made you think your cat would enjoy taking a shower with you?”

Safety Nets • A Safety Net is a Regulation, Policy, Practice or Procedure which, if in place might break a link or prevent a link in the chain of events • The regulatory body controls the regulations • The company controls the policies • The individual controls the practice or procedures.
We must learn to put “Safety Nets” in place Because: “It can happen to us” And; When we make an error Sometimes, Someone else pays the price

Lets Recap • It’ll never happen to us until it does • It’s not just Common Sense • We lack the knowledge of why we make errors • If we are to reduce errors we must train people on how to avoid them
Thank You Have a safe and rewarding career Johnny Rush
