Learning Outcomes

Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of human factors and their impact on railway safety and performance. The course explores the psychological, physiological, and organizational factors that influence safety-critical tasks. By the end of the training, learners will be equipped to identify potential human error risks, design strategies to mitigate them, and enhance overall safety and operational efficiency in rail transport systems.

Focus Points

The course covers essential topics including human error analysis, fatigue management, communication in safety-critical environments, and the role of ergonomics in rail operations. Participants will learn about safety culture development, team performance optimization, and how to integrate human factors into risk assessments. Case studies and practical examples will highlight real-world applications of human factor principles in railway safety.

Participants

This course is ideal for rail industry professionals such as safety managers, train operators, and supervisors. It is also valuable for policy makers, regulators, and consultants specializing in transportation safety. While prior knowledge of rail operations or safety management is beneficial, the course is designed for both beginners and experienced professionals eager to deepen their expertise in human factors and railway safety.
