Criteria for Assessing Safety Performance Measurement Systems: Insights from Resilience Engineering

Tarcisio Abreu Saurin, Carlos Torres Formoso and Camila Campos Famá

Although the use of safety performance measurement systems (SPMS) is an important practice, the literature does not offer clear recommendations on how they might be assessed. In this chapter, six criteria for assessing SPMS are proposed, which are founded on the resilience engineering paradigm. The use of those criteria is illustrated by two case studies, in which the SPMS of two construction companies were evaluated. The insights obtained from using those criteria are unlikely to result from general criteria for assessing performance measurement systems.
