Safety, Ownership & Leadership in Industrial Workplaces
MMES: All industrial operations, by and large, are carried on in Man-Machine-Environment System (MMES) mode, also referred to as Human Factors Engineering System (HFES) mode, which emphasizes the significance of Human Behaviour at the interfaces of Man – Machine – Environment interaction. Understanding and conforming with this aspect of the industrial equation is important for the safe and efficient execution of the industrial activity.
Another factor intrinsic to this equation, which is often ignored, is to understand, in its full manifestation, the criticality of all three elements of this system as well as its scope and impact by the managers/engineers/supervisors leading the team that has been entrusted to any task - be it operation, maintenance, services or any other associated activity.
