Recalls can be the result of manufacturing defects, design issues, or unexpected and unintended user behaviors – for many manufacturers, issues due to user behavior can be particularly challenging.

Our Human Factors group can provide the expertise to analyze user behavior. We can help predict potential misuses before they happen or identify ways to address unexpected misuses when they are discovered in the field.

 

Steven M. Hall, C.P.S.M. Director, Human Factors Practice “Our team’s experience with a wide range of industrial, commercial, consumer, medical, chemical, and transportation products allows us to bring a unique perspective to safety questions.”
