Welcome to On the Edge IQ
We’re all about understanding people and tackling complex problems head-on. Our team specializes in human performance, safety management, and culture change across various industries.
We get the frustrations of high-risk workplaces
- Despite our best efforts and considerable investment, safety performance is plateauing.
- People are fallible, but engineering controls for every failure are impractical.
- Navigating increasingly complex safety procedures.
- Overcoming reluctance to report near misses or incidents due to KPI concerns.
- Frontline workers are not engaged in design of critical tasks.
- Moving past blame and learning from mistakes while still enabling accountability.
- Repeat incidents despite extensive investigations.
- We are tired of constant new safety initiatives.
- Turning safety teams into trusted partners, not just rule enforcers.
At On the Edge IQ, we’ve got a toolbox full of well-established and emerging methods from our experience in applying Human Factors, Human & Organisational Performance (HOP), Safety II (and I) and Safety Differently. Our goal? To identify system design opportunities so it is easier to do the right thing, and harder to do the wrong thing. We break down barriers to enable your people to solve their safety problems, facilitating ongoing learning and improvement at both individual and organizational levels.
Led by Director Zoë Nation, our team brings decades of experience in industries like Oil and Gas, Mining, Rail, Manufacturing, Aviation, and more. We’re all about finding practical solutions that work for you, without reinventing the wheel.
