Domain-specific¶
- Organizational Influence Failure
- The HFACS taxonomy was built in aviation and exported nearly unchanged to medicine, nuclear power, rail, maritime, and mining: the same four-level hierarchy (organisational influences → unsafe supervision → preconditions for unsafe acts → unsafe acts), the same apex partition into resource management, organisational climate, and organisational process, the same upward-tracing diagnostic, and the same load-bearing prediction (leave the apex decisions in place and the population of preconditions, supervisions, and acts recurs in a new guise) all carry without structural modification

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This work's DOI is recorded above but has not been resolved against an external catalogue, so nothing here confirms the work exists.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
