Re: Factors That Influence Human Behavior

I will get the information about the factor that Influence Human Behavior so that you can go through it easily.

In order to address human factors in workplace safety settings, peoples' capabilities and limitations must first be understood.

The modern working environment is very different to the settings that humans have evolved to deal with.

The following human characteristics that can lead to difficulties interacting with the working environment.


Here I’m telling you about the factors
Attention
The modern workplace can 'overload' human attention with enormous amounts of information, far in excess of that encountered in the natural world.

The way in which we learn information can help reduce demands on our attention, but can sometimes create further problems

Perception

In order to interact safely with the world, we must correctly perceive it and the dangers it holds.

Work environments often challenge human perception systems and information can be misinterpreted.

Memory
Our capacity for remembering things and the methods we impose upon ourselves to access information often put undue pressure on us.

Increasing knowledge about a subject or process allows us to retain more information relating to it.

Logical reasoning

Failures in reasoning and decision making can have severe implications for complex systems such as chemical plants, and for tasks like maintenance and planning.

Here are some example which help you understand more human failure
Individual factors


Low Skill and Competence Level
Tired Staff
Bored Or Disheartened Staff
Individual Medical Problems

Job factors


Illogical Design of Equipment and Instruments
Constant disturbances and interruptions
Missing Or Unclear Instructions
Poorly Maintained Equipment
High Workload
Noisy and Unpleasant Working Conditions

Organisation and management factors

Poor work planning, leading to high work pressure
Poor Sops
Lack of Safety Systems and Barriers
Inadequate Responses to Previous Incident
Management Based on One-Way Communications
Deficient Co-Ordination and Responsibilities
Poor Management of Health and Safety
Poor health and safety culture.
