Unveiling the Mind: Harnessing Neuroscience for Enhanced Safety | HabitSafe
This is an insightful webinar presented by myosh in collaboration with Cristian from HabitSafe, focused on the fascinating world of neuroscience and its pivotal role in improving workplace safety.
Research shows that inattention contributes significantly to most incidents, including Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) events.In this webinar, we explore:
- Journey into Inattention: Discover what sparked Cristian's interest in the link between inattention and incidents.
- Neuroscience Fascination: Learn about the allure of neuroscience and how it enables us to peer inside the brain.
- Behavioural Insights: Understand what neuroscience reveals about human behaviour and the critical importance of comprehending why people act the way they do in safety contexts.
- Information vs. Action: Examine why relying solely on information is insufficient for ensuring safety and what truly influences our actions.
- Conscious vs. Subconscious: Dive into how our conscious and subconscious minds process and perceive risk, and whether the same tools can influence both.- Indicators and Impact: Discuss the relevance of lagging and leading indicators in safety and how they can be leveraged for maximum impact.
- Driving Understanding: Explore strategies to help workers and leaders gain a deeper understanding of what drives their actions and behaviours.
- Future of Safety: Address why the findings of neuroscience have often been overlooked in safety practices and why integrating these discoveries is crucial for the future.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights from neuroscience and transform your approach to safety management.

Christian Sylvestre
HabitsafeCristian’s 25-year safety career started in chemical manufacturing and then moved to the oil and gas industry.
In this heavy processing environment, he quickly learned that there are different types of safety and different ways to think about each one.
As a professional chemical engineer and having completed a Masters, he is trained to analyse complex problems and to use evidence-based science to deliver the simplest solutions that achieve positive safety outcomes.
His main field of interest is inattention, something that is in play in 95% of incidents and traditional safety has largely ignored.
He got interested in neuroscience about 15 years ago and wrote a book “Third Generation Safety: The Missing Piece – Using Neuroscience to Enable Personal Safety” to help people understand how inattention comes about and what we can be done to minimise it.
