Human PerformanceChampioning a safety cultureImproving Safety and Business Performance across the Nuclear Sector

We are all human and we make mistakes; but is this an acceptable standpointfor our industry?

Within the UK Nuclear Sector we have been on a long journey with safety sincethe pioneering days of the Windscale site. Human Performance has now emergedas the leading thinking around safety and business improvement.

In the highly regulated nuclear sector we have become accustomed to the rules and standard procedures. However, we must also encourage an openness toadmitting our mistakes if we are to keep improving on those standards. Errors are certainly predictable, especially if we apply the learning from our experience of previous events and are open to those errors we see around us.

The culture that we have within our organisations will also impact onour safety and business performance.

Please note - These courses are also available to non-nuclear sectors. Please see page 40.

Business Solutions Bury College in partnership with Oakridge Trainingand Consulting are the only nationally approved providers of HumanPerformance safety training to the Nuclear sector in the UK.

Improving safety and businessperformance across thenuclear sectorWhat is Human Performance?Human Performance impacts on all aspects of the working environment from the human and individual level through to the environment, organisation and job. Human Performance iscentred around reducing errors (Re) that we can see around us but it is also about managingthe defences (Md) effectively to stop errors having an impact now and also at a future date.

The basic principles that have been developed around Human Performance are:• We are all fallible and make mistakes• Errors are predictable• The values of an organisation and its processes have a huge impact

on the way we behave• These behaviours are reinforced by encouragement from peers, leaders and colleagues• Events that affect safety and business can be avoided by understanding why they occur

and learning from past events

About the Human Performance (HuP) Accelerator ProgrammesOn average humans make seven mistakes per hour. Most of these don’t affect us but one day a crucial error could have serious consequences for your business and your safety. Human Performance is about us as individuals and teams, and how we can reduce the frequency of errors whilst building in better defence mechanisms. It is about championing this throughout your organisation.

The HuP Accelerator Programmes have been designed in partnership with the National Skills Academy Nuclear (NSANuclear) to the requirement set out in the Human Performance training standards and will prepare you from fundamental level through leading a human performance safety culture to practitioner level in your organisation.

HuP= Re+ MdHuman Performance = Reducing Errors + Managing Defences
