Overview
Supervisors play a key role in human error reduction. People make mistakes because systems allow them to, so controlling error means understanding human behavior and the psychology of error, and finding exactly where the system is weak so it can be fixed.
This 90-minute webinar on human error reduction techniques for floor supervisors covers critical factors such as preparation, planning, scheduling and communication. It offers practical approaches to floor supervision, ways to get your group in sync, and a specific methodology for correcting, preventing and avoiding recurring issues in GMP environments.
You'll also look at types of error, human error rates and measurement, trending, prediction, CAPA effectiveness and the use of ChatGPT and AI.
Why attend: Supervision is central to reducing and preventing human error.
