We will explore the critical role of human factors in pharmaceutical manufacturing—how people, processes, and environments interact to influence safety, quality, and efficiency. We break down why human error remains one of the biggest challenges in highly regulated industries and how understanding cognitive load, attention management, and workplace design can significantly reduce mistakes.
We discuss common sources of human error, including fatigue, procedural complexity, and automation bias, and how strategies like task rotation, cognitive-friendly designs, and real-time verification help maintain operator focus. We also examine how culture and leadership impact error reporting and prevention, shifting from a blame mindset to a systems-thinking approach that prioritizes continuous improvement.
Whether you’re on the production floor, in quality assurance, or managing compliance, this conversation will give you actionable insights into how better human factors integration can enhance reliability and regulatory adherence in pharma manufacturing.
