The NSW Resources Regulator has published a fact sheet on its human and organizational factors data review. The Regulator engaged the Keil Centre to independently review its human and organizational factors analyses over the past five (5) years, where HUMAN ERROR and DELIBERATE NON-COMPLIANCE played a role in incidents. The review looked at 267 incidents at 180 at surface mines and 87 at underground mines, between August 2018 and May 2023.
It considers both intentional and unintentional compliance with rules or established processes and the influence of performance-shaping factors (PSFs) on a personal and organizational level, such as safety management and environmental conditions.
