This research report reviews these publications and consults industry representatives to acquire insights into:

• the scope of these documents, the type and extent of information they provide, to identify any gaps;
• how industry use current guidance and implement PSPI and human factors performance indicators (HFPI) within their organisations, and
• the advantages and disadvantages of guidance and how it could be further developed to better meet industry needs.

This publication is aimed at HF and process safety (PS) practitioners across the oil and gas sector to support their decision-making on next steps with regard to HF and PS key performance indicators guidance.
