SUMMARY
Following the 1999 'competition of ideas' process, Human Reliability Associates (HRA) was commissioned by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) to carry out a study of human factors aspects of remote operation in process.plants. HRA developed a proposal that consisted of two phases of work. The first phase, described in this report, was a survey of current practices in industry. The second, which has not yet been commissioned, was to involve the application of the survey results to develop a tool to assist companies introducing remote operation and to audit existing operations.
This report and the work it describes were funded by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Its contents, including any opinions and/or conclusions expressed, are those of the author(s) alone and do not necessarily reflect HSE policy.
