Part I of II
In high-risk work, we often separate
what can harm us (energy) from
how work actually gets done (human performance). This disconnect creates blind spots that no amount of compliance or coaching can fully close.
This session explores how to
bridge that gap by integrating energy-based safety with Human & Organizational Performance (HOP). Using practical field examples and operational scenarios, we’ll examine how unseen energy sources and normal human adaptations intersect—and why that intersection is where safety is truly won or lost.
Participants will walk away with:
- A clearer way to identify and think about energy hazards beyond the obvious (gravity and motion)
- Insight into how system conditions shape human decisions and exposure to energy
- Practical approaches to align hazard recognition, system design, and human performance in real work
Rather than focusing on eliminating error or controlling behavior, this session reframes safety as a function of designing systems that account for both energy and the realities of human work.
If we want better outcomes, we need better alignment between energy, systems, and people
