From Training to Human Reliability In Manufacturing

Pharmaceutical manufacturing sites continuously compete, even within the same company to maintain production volumes and avoid closures. To attain a status of a high performing organization manufacturing sites are implementing strategies and practices like operational excellence and performance reliability. To achieve this goal, innovative approaches to traditional processes need to take place. This webinar discusses how by redesigning the training function and by focusing on the expected result (human reliability) instead of the how (training), a reduction of more than 60% of human error events in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities was achieved.
