Based on systems thinking, the Complexity Landscape Model (CLM) of Black Swans was developed to identify their root causes of complexity through the Cynefin framework and regional disaster system theory. Black Swans usually occur when the hazard factors and hazard-formative environments are in chaos. Taking China as an example, case statistics and social network analysis were used to examine the intricate origins and evolutionary paths of Natech events. The results showed that technological incidents triggered by natural disasters are typically caused by human errors and inadequate application of state-of-the-art knowledge. They are foreseeable and mitigable and cannot be regarded as Black Swans. We contend that the Natech risk resilience network should be constructed based on systematic evaluation, highlighting the application of multi-disciplinary and crosscutting information; supported by departmental cooperation, emphasizing the flexibility and redundancy of disposal; and safeguarded by resource consolidation, underlining the effectiveness and breadth of participation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21375,"journal":{"name":"Safety Science","volume":"184 ","pages":"Article 106776"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143093417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results indicated moderate/high levels of acute fatigue, low/moderate levels of chronic fatigue and moderate/high recovery between shifts. Awareness of fatigue and its contribution to incidents were highlighted, nevertheless, a reluctance within the industry to address fatigue was expressed. Prevention strategies included regular short breaks, scheduling shifts no longer than 12 h with 10-hour intervals between, task rotation, provision of healthy meals and onsite accommodation. However, the weather, labour shortages and finances, may affect the use of these strategies. Broadening the scope to include other agricultural sectors such as beef, cotton or wool, could allow exploration of the similarities and differences regarding fatigue. Best practice measures from other industries may not be feasible in agriculture, therefore a fatigue minimisation approach is recommended. Acknowledging the existing cultural norms about fatigue, is crucial for the acceptability of prevention measures among the agricultural community.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21375,"journal":{"name":"Safety Science","volume":"184 ","pages":"Article 106773"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143093416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Examining the relationship between this phenomenon and individual characteristics (e.g., personality variables, safety training) may conceivably support safety managers in predicting susceptibility to change blindness. However, little is known regarding variables influencing change blindness in construction safety. To address this knowledge gap, this study examined the association between individual factors such as age, work experience, sex, formal safety training, personality, mindfulness, and injury exposure with change blindness in construction safety settings. To this end, a change detection experiment was conducted to measure participants’ response time and accuracy rate. Hierarchical agglomerative clustering was used to group the continuous dependent variables into analytical categories. Logistic regression was then used to analyze the association of individual factors with both response time and accuracy rate. The results revealed that age and the personality traits of agreeableness (+) and conscientiousness (−) were associated with response time, while mindfulness (+) and injury exposure (+) were associated with the accuracy rate. The findings of this study advance our understanding of variables that impact change blindness. The association of individual factors with change detection performance in construction provides a foundation for subsequent research to understand hazard identification in dynamic environments better. Regarding practice, these individual factors can be used as precursors to predict the susceptibility of workers to change blindness in construction; foreseeably, industry professionals can also utilize the predictive power of these variables to plan preventive actions on the jobsite.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21375,"journal":{"name":"Safety Science","volume":"184 ","pages":"Article 106761"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143093398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, based on key resilience characteristics—adaptability, robustness, resourcefulness, and rapidity—an ERN resilience evaluation framework was constructed. The study then selected the 2022 Luding earthquake as a case study, dividing it into four periods and using social network analysis metrics to dynamically measure ERN resilience and its inherent organizational impact. The results showed that 1) earthquake ERN resilience exhibited dynamic adaptability and forward adaptability; 2) ERN resilience was significantly associated with organizational attributes and behaviors; and 3) ERN robustness was influenced by network cohesion and organizational distribution. Finally, recommendations were made to enhance disaster ERN resilience by optimizing organizational structure and responsibility allocation, improving emergency planning, and managing materials.

Finally, the model was validated using two outburst accidents as samples, and the results revealed that the probability of outburst for the two accidental coal mines was 12% and 10%, respectively, and the critical causal paths were largely consistent with the accident investigation reports.
