Safety Management must encompass both the hard and soft aspects of safety to produce an exceptional outcome.

Legislation requiring employers to assess and manage risks; Public opinion on risk acceptability moving against poorly managed organizations which impose excessive risks and high profile disasters which fuel public opinion.
