  • Abstract:
    Human factors is the study of the human as a central part of any system. Human factors identifies the capabilities and limitations of humans and, then, adapts the human or the system components accordingly. Operational attention to human factors can raise efficiency, effectiveness, and safety in aviation environments. That translates to cost control and continuing safety. The Human Factors Guide for Aviation Maintenance is designed to be used in aviation maintenance environments. The Guide is written for maintenance management, but it contains information and guidance that can be used by people with various responsibilities within maintenance organizations. The Guide addresses traditional human factors topics, such as workplace design, safety, etc., as well as at least two topics not typically considered within the scope of traditional human factors. These two topical areas, sexual harassment and personal/job-related factors, are included at the request of industry representatives. While not traditional human factors topics, these two subject areas are known to affect (dramatically, in some cases) the ability of people to work safety and efficiently. In this regard, we believe it is appropriate to address them in a Guide concerned primarily with performance-related issues. The contents of each chapter are based on laboratory research and best practices in aviation and other industries. The chapters are all written in a straight-forward, readable format. For readers requiring greater detail, additional references are always provided. This links takes one to a hypertext Table of Contents. Each chapter has a scope note to help guide the user.
