The Field Guide To Understanding 'Human Error'

When faced with a ’human error’ problem, you may be tempted to ask 'Why didn’t these people watch out better?' Or, 'How can I get my people more engaged in safety?' You might think you can solve your safety problems by telling your people to be more careful, by reprimanding the miscreants, by issuing a new rule or procedure and demanding compliance. These are all expressions of 'The Bad Apple Theory' where you believe your system is basically safe if it were not for those few unreliable people in it. Building on its successful predecessors, the third edition of The Field Guide to Understanding ’Human Error’ will help you understand a new way of dealing with a perceived 'human error' problem in your organization. It will help you trace how your organization juggles inherent trade-offs between safety and other pressures and expectations, suggesting that you are not the custodian of an already safe system. It will encourage you to start looking more closely at the performance that others may still call 'human error', allowing you to discover how your people create safety through practice, at all levels of your organization, mostly successfully, under the pressure of resource constraints and multiple conflicting goals. The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error' will help you understand how to move beyond 'human error'; how to understand accidents; how to do better investigations; how to understand and improve your safety work. You will be invited to think creatively and differently about the safety issues you and your organization face. In each, you will find possibilities for a new language, for different concepts, and for new leverage points to influence your own thinking and practice, as well as that of your colleagues and organization. If you are faced with a ’human error’ problem, abandon the fallacy of a quick fix. Read this book.

My pets love it.
Size: 23" x 23", Color: Beige, Size: 23" x 23", Color: Beige
I bought this as a replacement to another donut bed that I had had for my dog. He is a 20 pound Jack Russell Terrier. This bed is in his crate. He loves his bed. Not only does the dog, but I also have several cats and during the day when Riggs is loose my cats will go in his dog crate and sleep in the bed. I have had the bed for almost a year now and it’s holding up great. Actually over the weekend I did have to wash it because it looks like he got sick and spit up in his crate. Came out of the washer and dryer great.

It’s a two piece and it’s pretty stiff. The dogs like it though.

Cute and Sturdy Cat Scratcher
Size: Large - 27" H
Very nice scratcher that is reasonably priced. Was very easy to put together...literally took me less than 5 minutes. The base is nicely weighted, so no worries about my x-large kitties knocking it over. Well made, study and it's so cute. It's a nice size also. My cats love it. Happy I bought this item and a bargain at the price I paid!
