Rail
Railways rely on people to ensure that they operate efficiently and safely.
The industry acknowledges people make errors and have developed rail human factors standards and regulations to integrate human factors into rail.
The industry now accepts that human error is likely to contribute or even be the major source of risk, potentially causing a loss of life and financial losses.
HAM Associates have been involved in over 25 rail projects improving overall rail performance, reducing human error and contributing to a safety culture.
We have worked in traction control and many different signalling environments incorporating a variety of regulations and equipment.
We are conversant with UK Railway Group and Network Rail human factors and ergonomics standards.
