People’s or animals’ behaviour is the way that they behave. You can refer to a typical and repeated way of behaving as a behaviour. Human behavior is the capability, potential and ability that is expressed (mentally, physically, and socially) by human individuals or groups to respond to internal and external stimuli throughout their life. Just Culture defines three kinds of behaviors: human error, at-risk behavior, and reckless behavior. Let’s have a glance at these three kinds.

 1.    Human Error

It refers to something which has been done and was “not intended by the actor; not desired by a set of rules or an external observer; or that led the task or system outside its acceptable limits”. To sum up, we may call it as a deviation from intention, expectation or desirability.

There are three types of human error

The following are three human errors; slips and lapses (skill-based errors), and mistakes. It is notable that these types of human error are not related to illiterate person but also can happen to even the most experienced and well-trained person in the society. Slips and lapses occur in very familiar tasks which we can carry out without much conscious attention, for example driving a vehicle.

Some of common reasons of human error.

Factors which are present in our working environment, can cause human error. Physical aspects of the work environment (e.g. poor lighting) can also cause errors. Therefore, these “stressors” can range from poor lighting, complex documentation, inconsistent processes, illogical material flows through to company culture, insufficient communication and inaccurate and insensitive performance procedures.

Disregarding Safety. Whether it’s due to an employee becoming comfortable with the job, or a general lack of appreciation, employees often neglect even the most basic of safety measures.

·         Poor Training

·         Negligence.

How common is human error?

Human error is a frequently deployed explanation: almost 90% of industrial accident reports indicate a failure on the part of the injured person or a co-worker.  More we find the root cause, more it will help to prevent future accidents by leading to improved process design, training and team safety.

 2.    At-risk behavior

It is something that puts youth at risk for future negative consequences, like poor health, injury or death. They never imagine that injury, pregnancy, or accidents could happen to them.

Potential threats to health, or even life.

Risky behaviors with regards to human actions, such as substance abuse, heavy alcohol consumption, unprotected sexual intercourse, reckless driving, or extreme sports are considered potential threats to health, or even life.

Examples of behavioral risk factors

A verity of lifestyle habits, identified as behavioral risk factors, may increase non disease death (NCD) risk. NCDs, or Non-Communicable Diseases, literally mean diseases one cannot catch from another person. Communicable means infectious, so it is a group of diseases defined by what they are not. The rise of NCDs has been driven by primarily four major risk factors: tobacco use, physical inactivity, the harmful use of alcohol and unhealthy diets. These risk factors include overweight or obesity, smoking, physical inactivity, and risky alcohol consumption. Each of these above risk factors alone can cause many health problems for human.

 3.    Reckless Behavior

Reckless behavior is different from acting irresponsibly only once in a while. It is something that is done foolishly, carelessly, or without thinking about the consequences. An example of behavior that would be described as reckless driving is driving 110 miles an hour down a highway with a speed limit of 55. A pattern of reckless behavior may include the following things: Repeatedly going over the limit in almost any activity of life.

Impulsive and risky behavior, such as unsafe sex, gambling, reckless driving, spending sprees, binge eating or drug abuse, or sabotaging success by suddenly quitting a good job or ending a positive relationship can cause reckless behavior of a person. Moreover, suicidal threats or behavior or self-injury, often in response to fear of separation or rejection.
