Ep.85 Why does safety get harder as systems get safer?

In this week’s episode, we tackle an interesting conundrum in safety through a paper written by René Amalberti.

The author also challenges the idea of continuously improving the safety of systems - stating that this could actually become detrimental to the overall safety of a workplace.
