Les Facteurs Humains Et Organisationnels Dans Le Projet De Conception D Un Syst Me Risques

Pour favoriser des interventions humaines performantes et sûres, la démarche FHO se base sur une analyse approfondie de l’activité humaine dans les situations existantes, et sur une simulation de l’activité probable lors des futures opérations, en fonction des options techniques et organisationnelles qui se dessinent. Elle suppose la mise en place d’une maîtrise d’ouvrage forte, une articulation précise avec la maîtrise d’œuvre, et une participation de différents acteurs, notamment exploitants. Les étapes de la démarche FHO doivent être planifiées dès le début de l’avant-projet et s’étendent jusqu’à l’évaluation après démarrage.

À partir de cas réels d’incidents ou d’accidents, les auteurs analysent l’influence des hommes dans le fonctionnement d’organisations complexes parfois à hauts risques. Ils mettent en évidence les mécanismes humains d’erreurs, mais aussi les mécanismes de rattrapage et de prévention. Cet ouvrage propose des clés pour mettre en place une culture de sécurité au sein de l’entreprise, intégrant la protection des informations sensibles. Une boucle vertueuse entre management d’équipe et comportement individuel doit être créée, qui permettra d’allier culture de sécurité et efficacité de la production. Les nombreux exemples montrent que les solutions suggérées sont à la portée de tous. Elles requièrent simplement courage, persévérance et un dialogue sans cesse entretenu.

The book offers important insight relevant to Corporate, Governmentand Global organizations management in general. The internationallyrecognised authors tackle vital issues in decision making, howorganizational risk is managed, how can technological andorganizational complexities interact, what are the impediments foreffective learning and how large, medium, and small organizationscan, and in fact must, increase their resilience. Managers,organizational consultants, expert professionals, and trainingspecialists; particularly those in high risk organizations, mayfind the issues covered in the book relevant to their daily workand a potential catalyst for thought and action. A timely analysis of the Columbia disaster and theorganizational lessons that can be learned from it. Includes contributions from those involved in the InvestigationBoard report into the incident. Tackles vital issues such as the role of time pressures andgoal conflict in decision making, and the impediments for effectivelearning. Examines how organizational risk is managed and howtechnological and organizational complexities interact. Assesses how large, medium, and small organizations can, and infact must, increase their resilience. Questions our eagerness to embrace new technologies, yetreluctance to accept the risks of innovation. Offers a step by step understanding of the complex factors thatled to disaster.

Urban Agriculture in West Africa: Contributing to Food Security and Ur

Modern technological systems entail risks and uncertainties of hitherto unknown dimensions. This book discusses the construction of risk and safety within a variety of empirical contexts where technologies and their risk are debated and handled by individuals, groups or organizations. With contributions from leading scholars from Europe and the USA, it presents original theoretical discussions, linked to detailed empirical case studies.

How do institutions influence and shape cognition and action in individuals and organizations, and how are they in turn shaped by them? Various social science disciplines have offered a range of theories and perspectives to provide answers to this question. Within organization studies in recent years, several scholars have developed the institutional logics perspective. An institutional logic is the set of material practices and symbolic systems including assumptions, values, and beliefs by which individuals and organizations provide meaning to their daily activity, organize time and space, and reproduce their lives and experiences. This approach affords significant insights, methodologies, and research tools, to analyze the multiple combinations of factors that may determine cognition, behaviour, and rationalities. In tracing the development of the institutional logics perspective from earlier institutional theory, the book analyzes seminal research, illustrating how and why influential works on institutional theory motivated a distinct new approach to scholarship on institutional logics. The book shows how the institutional logics perspective transforms institutional theory. It presents novel theory, further elaborates the institutional logics perspective, and forges new linkages to key literatures on practice, identity, and social and cognitive psychology. It develops the microfoundations of institutional logics and institutional entrepreneurship, proposing a set of mechanisms that go beyond meta-theory, integrating this work with macro theory on institutional logics into a cross-levels model of cultural heterogeneity. By incorporating current psychological understanding of human behaviour and linking it to sociological perspectives, it aims to provide an encompassing framework for institutional analysis, and to be an essential and accessible reference for scholars and advanced students of organizational behaviour, organization and management theory, business strategy, and cultural sociology.

SAGE has unparalleled depth in journal back lists in the field of organization studies, and publishes several of the top journals in the field, including Organization, Human Relations and Organization Studies. This four-volume set brings together over sixty of the key papers published in SAGE books and journals since the turn of the millennium, many of which are not easily available in traditional library holdings. Professor Stewart Clegg is widely recognised as a preeminent scholar of organization studies, and together with an international editorial board of ten renowned scholars in the field, has arranged this selection to help the reader better understand the developments in the field from different perspectives. Emphasis is placed on the ′history of the present′ of organization studies, with articles that discuss contemporary issues and foreshadow further developments in the field, across popular theoretical perspectives such as discourse analysis, institutional theory and complexity theory.
