For me, Safety-II is no less than a paradigm shift in safety, bringing together various strands of thought, by various different people, that have unfolded for some time. The juxtaposition of Safety-I and Safety-II has provided a way of comparing two ways of looking and thinking about safety and systems which have different implications. The Safety-II perspective, developed and spearheaded by Prof. Erik Hollnagel, has taken up a lot of my time over last 12 months. Safety-II isn’t about looking only at success or the positive This is perhaps the most common misconception.
Safety-II isn’t a fad Safety-II is built on a substantial theoretical foundation. Safety-II isn’t ‘just theory’ While Safety-II isn’t an atheoretical fad, it isn’t ‘just theory’ either. Safety-II isn’t the end of Safety-I Safety-II isn’t about ‘best practice’ Safety-II isn’t what ‘we already do’ Related. Untitled. SafeStart: Safety Culture Change THROUGH Human Error Prevention.

Resources Safety protects employees in the minerals industry by administering the Mines Safety and Inspection Act 1994 (WA) and Mines Safety and Inspection Regulations 1995 (WA).
Note that although some guidance material was prepared under the auspices of previous departments and divisions, it is still valid. Act and regulations General duty of care The legislation above defines standards of safety. Safety systems that meet these standards have to be developed by companies and made part of day-to-day work practice. Resources Safety is using an approach that makes it the employer's responsibility to manage safety, known as the general duty of care in Western Australian mines, available below.

Safety training - then, now and the future - McCullough Robertson. 18 August 2011 The mining industry has come a long way on the safety journey.
Talk to anyone who has been in the industry for any significant amount of time and they will tell you how safety has become part of the culture and that zero harm is seen as an achievable reality, not a distant dream. There are many factors that have contributed to this outcome, but perhaps the most obvious contribution has come through safety training, which serves to raise awareness of issues and to provide workers with the knowledge and instruction necessary to protect themselves and others. Safety laws across Australia place obligations on industry participants to ensure that they train their workers. However, to meet statutory obligations, training the workforce means more than performing a ‘tick a box’ exercise, putting up a few posters and letting workers learn ‘on the job’. Rather, it requires a training package that ensures mine workers are competent to perform their duties.
