Webinar: London Branch – Safety-II and the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM)
Safety-II is the new kid on the block in the safety and reliability world. But what is the hype about, and how does it help us to manage safety better? In this SaRS London Branch webinar, we give an introduction to the basic principles of Safety-II and the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM) as the most widely used Safety-II method. We describe the application of FRAM in the maritime and healthcare sectors. We reflect on how FRAM has helped us to understand safety through a systematic description of everyday work. Does Safety-II offer novel insights for safety management and is it here to stay, or is it a fashion that will soon be replaced by something else? We look forward to debating these issues with webinar participants.
