Safety-II in Practice

Published: 29 January 2018

The aim of the workshop is to share experiences from how Safety-II has been used in various industries and applications. The participants will have the opportunity to present and discuss the lessons learned – good as well as bad, practical as well as methodological. The workshop will be a unique – and first – opportunity for safety professionals and researchers to interact with like-minded colleagues, to debate the strengths and weaknesses of Safety-II, and to share ideas for further developments. The workshop will take place in Cardiff, UK on June 14-15, 2018, and is organized by Cardiff University in collaboration with FRAMsynt.

The workshop follows the 2018 FRAMily meeting, which takes place at Cardiff University June 11-13.
