Course Description

Human Error occurs in all settings. In the world of pharmaceutical manufacturing, the result of that error can result in loss of product or at the most extreme, injury to patients!

Human error is a frequent occurrence in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It occurs even when every obvious preventive actions have been employed such as effective compliance documentation development and training.

Unfortunately, sometimes these actions are not adequate to prevent these errors from occurring. “Human Error” is sometimes not the cause of issues even though relegated/assigned as the root cause of adverse events with reasons assigned such as “lack of attention to detail” or “failure to follow procedure.

Corrective action in these instances often involve re-training or disciplinary action. These approaches do not seek to understand really why the error(s) occurred.

The human error problem can be viewed in 2 ways: The Human Approach & The System Approach.

Each has its model of error causation and each model gives rise to quite different philosophies of error management. Understanding these differences has important practical implications for coping with the ever-present risk of mishaps in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Why you should attend

As per a study, Human Error is The Cause of Nearly 80% of Failures in Manufacturing Facilities. Are you ready to avoid this significant loss of time, money, and consumer confidence each year?

Human error reduction (HER) can lead to reducing operational and development costs, shorten development cycles, and foster higher product quality, not to mention preventing accidents.

This 4-Hrs. interactive virtual seminar will explore the true causes and nature of human error:

  • How human error should be investigated
  • How human error relates to human performance
  • The difference between real human error and systems, process, and management deficiencies.
  • It will also address how human error occurs in the planning and execution stages of task performance.

At the completion of this webinar participants will be able to:

  • Define human error and identify its properties.
  • Explain the cost of human error
  • Explain how human error is manifest in the pharmaceutical setting
  • Explain how potential human error situations are investigated
  • Explain how the real root cause of human error is identified and verified.
  • Define the role of leadership in Human Error reduction
  • Explain and describe the Error Reduction Strategies that are effective in mitigating human.
