In the domain of safety, human and organizational factors (HOF) manifest in multiple approaches and departments within the company: HR, HSE and product.
Questions
What materials, compatibility, theoretical frameworks are appropriate? How have these theoretical and methodological frameworks evolved over the past 15 years?
How have things changed in terms of diagnosis and support? What exactly are we measuring? Is it relevant? How can we better-assess a safety climate?
Is there a need for centralized governance of HOF in companies, what does this governance look like?
What experience feedback can be obtained from the results of the ‘safety diagnosis’ database?
What is the role of the local manager as a link between management and teams in the field? What is the recognition and responsibility policy?

The strategic analysis
The Foncsi carried out a strategic analysis on this subject between 2017 and 2019.
Methodology
Strategic analysis is a working methodology developed by the Foncsi. It aims to ensure high-level research over a particularly short period (18-24 months), and to establish a continuum of innovation between research and industry.
There are four key stages:
- The state of the art
- The international academic seminar
- Comparison with industrial practices
- The industrial seminar
