Serious incidents are often complex and involve several interacting factors. When factors are not fully explored, investigations can become over-simplified leading to ineffective corrective actions and missed learning opportunities.
- Recognize the underlying complexity behind serious incidents
- Understand how successful work is achieved under real-world conditions
- Move beyond simple cause-and-effect explanations
- Support more effective follow-up actions and performance improvements
