Book Description
Engineers are facing increased scrutiny for safety in their products and operations due to rapid technological advancements, such as artificial intelligence and robotics. The public is less tolerant of accidents, and governments are implementing regulations to improve safety performance. This has led to increased liability exposure for failures and increased scrutiny in various industries. By using a practical approach, this book helps engineers improve safety risk performance.
System Safety Engineering and Risk Assessment: A Practical Approach, Third Edition, continues to provide a practical approach to constructing safer systems. The third edition focuses on real-life safety success stories from companies and governments, addressing emerging risks in areas like energy transition, supply chain deglobalization, manufacturing 4.0, and digitalization. The book emphasizes the strategic use of artificial intelligence to understand performance indicators and how business leaders can leverage the digital revolution to enhance safety practices. It also focuses on the importance of senior executive involvement in fostering a strong safety culture and encourages engineers to focus on tangible outcomes.
Designed for engineers who recognize the importance of constructing safer systems but may be uncertain about how to begin, this book provides valuable guidance and insights.
