Based measures to assess the candidates in divers, divers, caissons and other people at hyperbaric gas and water environments, special professionally important physiological functions. The recommended tests: check the functional state of divers during examination of barofunction; assessment of resistance to decompression intravascular gas formation; toxic effects of oxygen, narcotic effects of nitrogen, hypoxic.
The results of the analysis of methodical literature are presented and the most informative methods and the optimal order of their implementation for the assessment of special professionally important physiological functions of persons associated with diving are recommended for practical application. The procedure of carrying out and criteria of an estimation of recommended tests is stated: checks of barofunction; estimations of stability to decompression intravascular gas formation; toxic action of oxygen, narcotic action of nitrogen, a functional condition of divers at carrying out hypoxic test. A promising technique for assessing resistance to hypercapnia is recommended. This is undoubtedly important for medical personnel providing medical care to persons working in conditions of high pressure. Th e proposed unification of expert test effects will improve the safety and efficiency of diving and caisson operations, will contribute to the prevention of professionally caused diseases.
Creating a positive safety culture in the entire organization is the one of the key elements in successful Human Factors management. The main objective is to illustrate that Safety Leadership Training programs designed and facilitated based on the Accelerative Learning method, are a key tool to drive behavioural change towards obtaining a profound understanding of risks, with an ultimate aim to promote a positive safety culture and as consequence reduce the potential for human errors. Human Factors refer to environmental, organizational and job factors as well as human and individual characteristics which influence behaviour at work in a way which can affect health and safety conditions. Even competent skilled professionals working with the best technology may make errors, demonstrate unsafe behaviours and take unacceptable risks. Taking these factors into consideration there is a need to create a strong safety culture in order to have a positive influence on people's behaviour. Safety culture can be significantly improved via leaders through support and coaching. Safety Leadership training is a tool to educate personnel, help improve the safety culture and reduce risks in the entire organization. The Paper illustrates how the following factors influence people behaviour at work: The job - Matching the job to the person will ensure the most effective contribution to the business results. Physical match includes the design of the whole workplace and working environment. Mental match involves the individual's information and decision-making requirements. Mismatches between job requirements and people's capabilities provide the potential for human error. The individual - Individual characteristics influence behaviour in complex and significant ways. Their effects on task performance may be negative and may not always be mitigated by job design. The organization - has the greatest influence on individual and group behaviour. Organizational safety culture should promote employee involvement and commitment. For example, if person A sees person B breaking a rule without consequences, then person A is more likely to break that rule. Safety Leadership trainings that are delivered based on the Accelerated Learning Method improve the Safety culture in the organization and impact all the factors that influence people behaviour. This makes it an effective tool for personnel's engagement in safety, promotion of safety behaviour and reduction of the risk tolerability.
This paper will summarize an approach for developing and rolling out high-impact safety leadership training programs to managers and employees of onshore and offshore upstream oil assets. The main objective of the paper is to illustrate how to integrate the Accelerative Learning (AL) methodology in the design of safety leadership trainings in order to enable people throughout the organization to understand and act upon HSE priorities for their company with the ultimate goal to improve safety performance, achieve cost savings, reduce risk and raise employee safety awareness and motivation.The approach to design and delivery of safety leadership trainings uses the AL Methodology, which is considered to be one of the state-of-the-art learning approaches that are in use today, and which is based on the latest research on reconciliation between the brain physiology and the learning process. The method is based on addressing the Auditory (A), Visionary (V) and Kinaesthetic (K) learning modalities through the AL Cycle. The incorporation of this methodology in the safety training programs design and delivery effectively seeks to de-mechanize and re-humanize the learning process and make it mind and body experience, achieving maximum level of information retention and enhancing a transition from safety management approach to safety leadership mindset.Incorporation of both active (practice by doing, discussion groups, immediate use of learning) and passive (lecture, reading, audio visual and demonstration) methods of engagement under the AL philosophy into the design and delivery of safety leadership programs helps to achieve up to 95% retention of information, leading to higher competency outcomes and immediate linkage of the concepts back to everyday realities in the field. The following results were achieved with the application of this concept to safety leadership development of personnel in onshore and offshore upstream assets:y Developing ability to understand motivational and behavioural profiles of personnel and apply relevant tools to influence, engage and create positive change in the safety performance of organizations (achieving an up to 70% improvement); y Developing ability to demonstrate visible and felt safety leadership from front-line level-personnel up to the management teams;y Enhancing personal leadership capability to build safety into newly established teams, and prepare them for new responsibilities to pave the road for operational success.
