Abstract
This paper aims mainly to present the methodology and the main results of the diagnosis on safety culture (or human and organizational factors) carried out in two offshore production platforms in Brazil. The main methodological stages were: (i) application of a questionnaire on safety culture and (ii) group discussion of the divergences of perception among the different hierarchical levels. The integration among the platforms’ operating teams and the company’s engineering areas may be pointed as the main condition for the development of the proactive and generative safety culture.
