November saw the publication of the Human Element, a new publication exploring the way human factors can influence safety in safety-critical organisations, including ships. The UKSR’s Human Element team was closely involved in production of the book and is now considering running a two-day conference on this subject in autumn 2018. 

 The planned programme will cover a wide spectrum of maritime human element topics, presenting solutions to many of the Human Element issues the maritime industry faces. The plan is to include a range of notable speakers from the maritime sphere, other interested industries and academia.

 If you or a colleague would be interested in attending such an event, please contact: human.element@mcga.gov.uk by 28 February.
