What is HOP? Human and Organizational Performance (HOP) training, also known as Human and Organizational Performance, is a framework focused on improving safety, efficiency, and overall organizational performance by understanding and managing the interactions between people and the systems they work within. It's a proactive, systems-based approach that acknowledges human fallibility and aims to create more resilient and error-tolerant work environments. ​
