About this book

This book discusses the successful integration of values, ergonomy and risk management to achieve corporate strategic goals. Companies are starting to focus on risk management and corporate sustainability, but also value-based approaches in order to stay competitive. Although constantly emerging techniques are making this task easier, managing ergonomic based risks remain a challenge. The book largely focuses on values, ergonomy and risk management in the context of aviation business strategy. Offering insights into the principles of successful aviation business management using a value-based approach, it is a valuable resource for academics and postgraduate students as well as professionals in the aviation industry.
