Make New Safety Ideas Stick
- After learning new concepts, recall them from memory within 24–48 hours to cement retention.
- Reinforce by discussing with a peer and scheduling recurring calendar reminders for key insights.
Accidents Are Consolidations Of Subtleties
- Most incidents are a "consolidation of subtleties" rather than a single root cause.
- Effective solutions combine several small changes that reinforce each other rather than one magic fix.
Prioritize Learning Over Pure Control
