Rail safety assessment
We have extensive experience in the provision of independent safety assessment (ISA) services related to the human factors that influence the safety levels achieved on a project.
How we can help
We are skilled at reviewing project assurance and design development documents in order to evaluate the depth and quality of consideration give to the human factors that affect the safety of the system.
We have a comprehensive knowledge of the way in which a railway system operates and the humans in the system that have an effect upon safety. The rationale behind the design of the human interfaces must be robust and clearly documented in order to demonstrate that the potential for human error has been managed to an acceptable level.
What are the benefits?
The human in the system is central to the safety of the system, and as such the physical and cognitive limitations of the human must be fully considered. The consideration of the human factors within the system ensures that a complete service can be offered by Lloyd’s Register.
