CASARES-LI, Reicelis; RODRIGUEZ-HERNANDEZ, Aida G.  e  VINA-BRITO, Silvio Juan. Human error analysis by the technology TErEH: experiences in its application. Ing. Ind. [online]. 2016, vol.37, n.1, pp. 49-58. ISSN 1815-5936.

The technology TErEHis presented to identify, analyze and resolve human errors through ergonomic analysis of the work activity. The article basically explains what is needed to accomplish each of the stages and steps of the technology, and how the relationship among the taxonomies of active failure (AF) and latent conditions (LC) allow to carry out the human error analysis. It is determined which are the reserves from the point of view of production, quality, and occupational safety and health in the process. The application of the first two stages of the technology characterized the risks of occurrence of active failures (errors and violations) and their relation with possible consequences. The effectiveness of the technology TErEH for the analysis of human errors was proven through its application. Also, needs related to the incorporation of procedures for an economic analysis were identified.
