-- O -- -~ -- ODE 7 U.S. COAST GUARD PROGRAMS AND THEIR DEVELOPMENT Prevention Through People Program The PIP program, as developed through the work of the QAT, proposes a participatory, systematic approach to reduce both human injuries and fatalities and environmental pollution through collaborative relationships; the utilization of risk management tools; the utilization of techniques for detecting, assessing, and preventing human errors; and the improvement of investigative methods, data collection, analyses, and feedback.

The report provides possible explanations for the prevalence of human error, offers a prevention strategy, and recommends an Implementation plan. The QAT report characterizes the role of human error, and hence the importance of human and organizational performance, in marine safety across many sectors and stresses the need to incorporate changes in the marine industry based on what is known about people.

With one exception (commercial fishing) , the PTP implementation plan does not target specific marine sectors but sets objectives that, if achieved, should reduce accidents across multiple sectors.

The R&D program currently focuses on deep draft commercial vessels and large passenger vessels. Sixty-eight research issues have been identified and classified into five categories: · crowing, qualifications, and licensing · automation and technology design · safety methods and data · communications · organizational practices These five categories are reflected in the current Coast Guard Human Factors R&D Program areas, which include assessment of ship crews to perform; development of principles and strategies for incorporating human factors into the design and use of automated systems; identification of better information and procedures for defining and controlling safety problems; identification of improvements in person-to-person and equipment-to-person communications; and development of a better understanding of the organizational practices and policies that contribute to human error.
