The Evils of Automation vs. the Evils of Human Error
With Marc Riquelme
President of Signicast, CIREX, and OptiMIM, divisions of Form Technologies

People make mistakes and robots don’t. But are robots and technology actually replacing workers or is that just a misconception most people have? 

And is there really nothing you can do for human error except multiple layers of redundancy or is that also a widely held misconception? 

And finally, can you combine new technology with critical error reduction techniques to achieve higher reliability with the people who remain? 

The answer is yes, but it depends on how you go about it.

In this episode, Marc Riquelme and Larry  discuss how to leverage technology and methodology to achieve higher levels of production, reliability, and safety within the organization. 

Marc is the President of three companies within Form Technologies and he has a great sense of humor, but he also has a number of important messages for senior managers and EHSQ professionals.
