- Human
Error Analysis (HEA) - Human error analysis, in a system context,
is the assessment of each human-machine interface point, decision,
or action for the potential for human error to adversely impact
system performance or safety of the system and its users.
There are a variety of methodologies for conducting these analyses.
Many of these separate human error into categories such as errors
of omission or commission for analysis purposes. Errors of omission
include not performing a procedure, skipping a step in a procedure,
or not responding to an alarm, alert, or other stimulus. Errors
of commission include performing a wrong action or performing
it in an incorrect way. After potential errors are identified
and analyzed, the system can be designed to mitigate the effects
of such error and prohibit or block execution.
