Human factors engineering (HFE) is about making it easy for people to do things right and difficult for them to do things wrong. Major accidents have highlighted the importance of addressing this aspect of performance, e.g. wrong operator response, slow response and incorrect diagnosis.
There is increasing emphasis on the importance of managing human factors to achieve improved safety in process industries.
This is a multidisciplinary science that focuses on:
Interactions between humans and the work system
Designing human–machine interactions that optimise human and system performance

Conceptual model
Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT) is Singapore’s University of Applied Learning, offering applied degree programmes targeted at growth sectors of the economy. With a mission to nurture and develop individuals who impact society in meaningful ways, SIT aims to be a leader in innovative learning by integrating learning, industry, and community.
The university’s unique pedagogy integrates work and study by incorporating applied research for students to work on real industry problems and creating solutions that meet industry needs. SIT also advocates the work-learn continuum, which places an emphasis on upskilling and lifelong learning.
Spread across six campuses, and partnered with nine reputable overseas universities, SIT offers a curriculum that blends innovation and expertise with applied research and practical experience.
Mission
To maximise the potential of our learners and to innovate with industry, through an integrated applied learning and research approach, so as to contribute to the economy and society.
Vision
SIT in 2024 is envisioned to be a key university in Singapore that lives and breathes industry, with its students and alumni (collectively called SITizens) being thinking tinkerers, lifelong learners and catalysts for transformation who care for the community and stay connected to SIT and their fellow SITizens
Course aim to be able to plan and conduct proper emergency response and evacuation in emergency situations.
Manual Handling course training is offered by Seatag for beginners. Seatag provide industry specific, sector specific and company specific training which complies with industry-best-practice and all relevant statutory and regulatory requirements.
This course covers the management systems approach to identifying and managing health and safety risks, the requirements of OHSAS 45001 and how to plan, complete and report the audit of an entire 01-ISMS. This course includes a 2-hour written examination.
The aims of the course: How to identify and control/eliminate hazards in and around confined spaces, as well as, how to operate safely within a confined space work environment.
Delegates will learn to consider when there can be alternatives to manual handling by planning before acting. Where manual handling in a wind turbine environment is unavoidable, we will teach and demonstrate the correct methods which aim to prevent injury as a result of lifting.
