Title
Safety II professionals: How resilience engineering can transform safety practice
Abstract
•Safety management approaches can be categorised as either a mode of centralised control or a mode of guided adaptability.•Safety professionals and their organisations are focussed on a safety management mode of centralised control and this can be detrimental to safety.•Resilience engineering, safety II and safety differently offer an alternative approach to safety management that resolve the shortcomings in traditional approaches to managing safety in complex systems.•This paper provides the first practical description of the purpose, tasks and activities of a safety professional through the theoretical lens of resilience engineering and safety II.
