The Weekly Reflektion 15/2026

Reflekt has produced several Reflektions on the ‘human factor’ and it will remain a key topic in the future. There is an increased recognition that the design and operability of complex systems need to account for the human factor and the way people are likely to respond to situations. The human factor can be both the weakest link and the greatest strength. Yes, humans are fallible, however this fallibility extends also to design and operability. When the design fails, or the situation is out with the operational boundaries then the human will be called on to respond and save the day.

Are you getting serious about the human factor?

The Weekly Reflektion 12/2026

We really do want to believe that the safety of our operation is good, and that risks are being managed to an acceptable level. Sometimes we manage to convince ourselves by selecting the information that confirm the belief and ignore contradictory information. Once we have established our view, it takes a lot of effort to change it. Unfortunately, the game changer may be a Major Accident, and it is with this bitter experience that the picture fades and reality rushes in.

Are you too easily convinced that safety is OK?

The Weekly Reflektion 10/2026

When everything looks normal, things might be going well. When a culture of questioning and challenge is in place, weak signals that things are not quite right may be better identified.

Just because it seems normal, is it OK?

The Weekly Reflektion 08/2026

Our mental health is continually being challenged by the stress in our everyday lives. The news we see and hear is dominated by theheadlines and it is often difficult to assess what is really importantand why. Our brains are perhaps being trained to avoid reading in depth, to be satisfied with the headlines. This can be a problem when we are following complex procedures in our operation.

How are you taking care of your mental health?
