Autor Jan M T Daalmans
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 oct 2012
Human Behavior in Hazardous Situations introduces a new generation within safety management, fully developed with neuropsychological insights, developed in collaboration with, and put to test by, the chemical and process industries. Until now, there has been little theoretical framework on how, and especially why, people behave the way they do in hazardous situations.Human Behavior in Hazardous Situations presents new theories, based on a human behavioral approach, to offer a fresh perspective on safety management. By way of case studies, practical tips and exercises, Dr Jan Daalmans demonstrates how this neuropsychological approach can be applied for those safety managers working in the Chemical, Process and Pharmaceutical industries.

  • Presents new brain-based approaches to safety, with a historical perspective on the evolution of the safety management
  • Practical tips and guidance for those working in the chemical and process industries
  • Including exercises and case studies to demonstrate the practical application of techniques
