Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Safety Isn’t a Profession with Dr. Robert Long
Q: How should the safety field navigate regulatory frameworks that are historically engineering-driven?
He emphasizes that regulation is often subjective and interpretive, urging a move toward acknowledging subjectivity, ethical obligations, and context rather than purely rule-based compliance.
Why Safety Isn’t a Profession with Dr. Robert Long
Q: What is your view on whether safety is a true profession, given the lack of foundational ethics in many safety programs?
Long argues that safety has not truly become a profession due to missing foundational ethics, advocating for formal ethical education and broader professional standards akin to law or medicine.
Why Safety Isn’t a Profession with Dr. Robert Long
Q: What prompted you to develop the social psychology of risk and pursue transdisciplinarity in safety?
He details a shift from education and social disciplines into safety, criticizing the industry's narrow focus on engineering and regulation, and advocating for incorporating humanities and indigenous knowledge to broaden understanding.
Why Safety Isn’t a Profession with Dr. Robert Long
Q: I'd like to start with you giving the listeners an introduction to the social psychology of risk. What are the main ideas?
Dr. Long explains that the social psychology of risk prioritizes social meaning and relationships in shaping risk, rather than just individual psychology, arguing that culture and social context drive how risk is perceived and managed.
Evaluating New View Safety with Mike Fears
Q: What is the core idea behind the principle that 'error is normal', and how does that square with safety practice?
Error being normal means deviations from ideal plans happen frequently and can be harmless if properly understood and managed; however, the host questions how to distinguish between harmless deviations and harmful errors, and how to balance context with accountability.
