Abstract

This document provides a state of the art of knowledge concerning the human and organizational factors of industrial safety. It shows that integrating human factors in safety policy and practice requires that new knowledge from the social sciences (in particular ergnomics, psychology and sociology) be taken on board and linked to operational concerns.
