COMAH-regulated sites involve the handling of hazardous substances, where safety is of utmost importance. Critical communications play a crucial role in ensuring effective shift handover and the use of Permit to Work systems. A Human Factors approach emphasizes clear and concise communication, standardized protocols, and appropriate tools and technologies.
By addressing human factors considerations in critical communications, we reduce the risk of miscommunication, enhance situational awareness, and improve safety in COMAH-regulated environments.
