The Human Factors discipline identifies four priority areas to focus on:
- Mental health and wellbeing;
- Musculoskeletal disorders;
- Aggression and violence; and
- Slips, trips and falls.
The integration of Human Factors into safety and design thinking will bring together the 4 priority areas (and other risks to staff wellbeing) to add value to existing initiatives to tackle these issues as part of a multi-disciplinary effort.
