What are High Reliable Organizations?

• These are organizations that

• are constantly confronted with serious and complex risks

• Environmental risks

• Performance-related risks (in particular service interruption or outage)

• Security-related risks

• Have to comply with ESG-related requirements or requirements in the area of “critical infrastructure”

• Provide reliable services or products with a high degree of assurance

• In such situations, an acceptable level of safety cannot be achieved by traditional safety management alone.

• HROs manage safety risks in a specific way, supported by a corresponding organizational culture.

• A key concept here is the development of organizational resilience.

• What all other organizations can learn from the HRO approach is integrated risk management and resilience engineering.A framework establishing high reliability as enterprise capability

Clear focus in risk identification - shortening response and management time before crisis events raise

Note: The High Reliability Organization Framework is part of the Capability Development Framework©

The entire Capability Development Framework was created for a scenario in which an organisation is constantly evaluating disruptive events, adapting its internal capabilities and resources accordingly and thus becoming more resilient in the market.
