An analysis of the integration of the human and organisational factors in safety and
environmental assessments.
A review of the current regulatory requirements and techniques for rule making. This
revealed that, in general, regulatory systems are lacking clear statements of safety approaches.
FSEA found that a common approach to safety and environmental assessment needs to be further
developed. The project identified a number of areas in which research and development is
necessary, in particular concerning risk acceptance criteria, risk management, risk communication,
organisational changes, human and organisational factors and databases to provide relevant data
for the common approach.
Policy implications
The Concerted Action recommended the development of a common approach to safety and
environmental assessment, common to all major actors, and consisting of several complementary
methods.
The crucial step for a successful common approach is to obtain a profound understanding of the
decision problems and needs within shipping, involving all actors. Collaboration is also crucial to
establish a set of common objectives and risk acceptance criteria aiming at the promotion of riskbased rule making procedures.
