hazardous, fast-paced, and complex environments yet avoid
catastrophic accidents. Since the genesis of HRO theory in
1989, interest in HROs has grown beyond hazardous operations
to many industries, including health care. This article reviews
the literature to determine the extent to which changes made in health care organizations are aligned with HRO theory, and
more specifically, with Roberts’ Six Actions, which are based
on HRO theory. The results suggest that HRO theory remains of
interest to health care organizations. Implications for engineering managers and opportunities for future research are suggested.
