If you work in the GMP regulated industry you not only need to address human error deviations because they are an inconvenience, you must do it because the regulation requires it. The CFR - Code of Federal Regulations Title 21 Subpart B_Organization and Personnel Sec. 211.22 talks about the “Responsibilities of quality control unit.” and it states that “(a) There shall be a quality control unit that shall have the responsibility and authority to approve or reject all components, drug product containers, closures, in-process materials, packaging material, labeling, and drug products, and the authority to review production records to assure that no errors have occurred or, if errors have occurred, that they have been fully investigated…” That being said Human Error is NOT a root cause. Human errors start at the design stage.
Join this session by expert speaker Ginette Collazo, where she will discuss human error categories, near root causes and root causes for these events. We will discuss the latest trends in human error issues in the industry.
Session Highlights:
Understand the psychology of error
Regulatory requirements in GMP environments for managing human performance deviations

Root Cause Determination Tool
Establish the Human Error Rate at your site
Implementing the program
Metrics and KPI’s
Human Error as the Root Cause

Why You Should Attend:
We need to be able to explain human behavior. Did the human fail because process weaknesses set them for failure? Do procedures provide for all information and clearly indicate critical steps and warning or cautions associated with steps? Do systems work for manufacturing or it the other way around? These are all tough questions to ask, but most importantly answer. This training would provide tools that can be implemented and used after this event. These include practical tools.
Who Should Attend:
Training managers and coordinators
Operations
Manufacturing
Plant engineering
QA/QC staff
Process excellence/improvement professionals
Industrial/process engineers
Compliance officers
Regulatory/legislative affairs professionals
General/corporate counsel
