3. Towards better integration of safety into design
This brief presentation highlighted the fact that, whatever the nature of the industrial system, the human element continues to occupy an important place. However, its role remains ambiguous, as it is seen both as the weak link in the system, to be replaced whenever possible by automation and hardware systems (reputed to be more robust and reliable).
