The Field Guide To Understanding 'Human Error'

When faced with a ’human error’ problem, you may be tempted to ask 'Why didn’t these people watch out better?' Or, 'How can I get my people more engaged in safety?' You might think you can solve your safety problems by telling your people to be more careful, by reprimanding the miscreants, by issuing a new rule or procedure and demanding compliance. These are all expressions of 'The Bad Apple Theory' where you believe your system is basically safe if it were not for those few unreliable people in it. Building on its successful predecessors, the third edition of The Field Guide to Understanding ’Human Error’ will help you understand a new way of dealing with a perceived 'human error' problem in your organization. It will help you trace how your organization juggles inherent trade-offs between safety and other pressures and expectations, suggesting that you are not the custodian of an already safe system. It will encourage you to start looking more closely at the performance that others may still call 'human error', allowing you to discover how your people create safety through practice, at all levels of your organization, mostly successfully, under the pressure of resource constraints and multiple conflicting goals. The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error' will help you understand how to move beyond 'human error'; how to understand accidents; how to do better investigations; how to understand and improve your safety work. You will be invited to think creatively and differently about the safety issues you and your organization face. In each, you will find possibilities for a new language, for different concepts, and for new leverage points to influence your own thinking and practice, as well as that of your colleagues and organization. If you are faced with a ’human error’ problem, abandon the fallacy of a quick fix. Read this book.

Best heat tape I've found
Size: 20mm X 33m
This is the only tape I purchase for my sublimation crafts, mainly because it just functionally works. The tape is durable and adheres well to the substrate. This tape doesn't leave a residue like other heat tape I've purchased. Easy to use, as the tape dispenser I have for crafting cuts the tape automatically for you when you advance the tape from the dispenser. My dispenser holds 2 rolls at a time, and since I get 4 rolls with my purchase, it is economical.

Best heat tape
Size: 10mm X 33m
I recently switched to this heat tape, and it has exceeded all my expectations. It is by far the best I’ve ever used, leaving no residue behind and no yellow coloring on the surface, unlike the brown heat tape I previously used. Since making the change, I’ve never considered purchasing anything else. The tape fits perfectly on my dispenser, which is a convenient feature. Additionally, it lasts quite a while, ensuring that I get my money’s worth. Overall, I am highly satisfied with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient heat tape solution.

Wonderful
Size: 20mm X 33m
I love this kind of sublimation tape. I have used this kind for years, and of course different sizes depending on what I am making. When I first started out with sublimation, I use the amber sublimation tape that came with certain products that you start off buying. I started off with tumblers and used this amber tape to tape down my seams, wow, much to my discuss the amber tape left its color on my tumblers. I was discussed and it was just not one, but about 3 of them. It took me another 2 hours to peel off all the sublimation pictures and the amber tape to have to redo many many tumblers. I found out then, that this has happened to many other people (facebook, pintrest, etc) and switched over then to this tape and have never use another color but clear tape. I have even had to take this tape off the sub pic when I did not get it lined up correctly and it did not tear the sub pic or do any other damage and I could reuse the same piece that I started with. Won't buy anything else
