Organisations have rules, standards and procedures designed to control safety risks and yet most organisations still find that human factors- how people behave, mean that these are never totally effective.  Lynn will give a brief overview of the current work on developing safety culture in Network Rail and how this is combining with the expertise in European Railways to create a way of measuring safety culture across Europe and of supporting a growing safety cultural maturity internationally.
