Optimizing process safety and minimizing operational errors in complex industrial and mining systems requires integrating human performance considerations into traditional risk assessment workflows. Incorporating insan faktörleri (human factors) into the Tehlike ve İşletilebilirlik Çalışmaları (HAZOP) process ensures that risk assessment teams look beyond mechanical or hardware failures to systematically analyze how operator fatigue, workplace design, communication gaps, and complex control interfaces contribute to safety deviations. This proactive approach allows organizations to identify cognitive and physical error traps, design more resilient engineering safeguards, and develop practical administrative controls that support personnel during critical operational decision-making.
