We are going to finish this unit 5 by doing a summary.
Safety is the presence of an ability that enables things to go right
across varying conditions.
This means that we are going to define safety
by its presence. We are going to look for the small and frequent successes
and we are going to use them in order to improve safety.
We can continue saying we are going to focus on what goes right,
not just on what goes wrong.
We are going to focus on both things, but for us, the most important thing
or for Safety II now, the most important thing
should be what goes right.
Because we have more things
that go right in the everyday job
than things that go wrong.
As we have said before, that helps us in order to have more feedback,
improving the control,
that makes things more understandable to people.
People are going to know when something is save
because safety is present.
And things that go right are easier for us to understand that are safe.
And also, the vocabulary is going to be positive.
So that's going to help us to be more proactive.
That is this next point.
We have to remain sensitive to possible failure.
We are going to be all the time working on positive things,
on positive outcomes, small positive outcomes.
But sometimes, things are going to go wrong.
That doesn't mean that Safety II is not working.
That means that there is no perfect system
there is no perfect safety,
We can improve safety, we can do systems incredibly safe.
But sometimes things are going to be out of control.
So we have to remain sensitive to possible failure.
We have to be thorough as well as efficient.
So if we will get those four points,
we know that we are trying to do
a more positive philosophy.
We are going to do something more flexible, more agile.
So we can look at all this to finish saying that
we have to consider investing in safety.
Because that is going to be an investment in productivity.
Safety is going to be present in our job.
When something happens, we don't have to have a plane stuck
in an airport for months, like the Flight 32
that I explained before.
We don't have to shut down a plant in order to fix something.
We are going to improve our productivity.
Everybody is going to be involved because everybody knows
how to do their everyday job.
Everybody is going to be willing to help you.
So all this is the summary of what Safety II is
and just some tips of how to improve safety
by working with safety II and trying to complement
Safety I with Safety II.
And with this, we have finished Unit 5.
I hope you have enjoyed it.
And please continue with the following NOOC.
