Essay from the year 2012 in the subject Sociology - Individual, Groups, Society, , language: English, abstract: Cultural differences form the subject of this paper and propose a framework for exploring the role of culture in helicopter accidents. Cultural factors are not currently well represented in accident analysis. We lack a comprehensive model to explain the cause of the accident, especially in the context of different cultures. It is important to note that a modifier of human behaviour is the culture in which it takes place. Few studies have focused on the socio-cultural interactions and implications in the aviation industry at the crew, organisation and other levels. No comprehensive study has been carried out to identify the cultural themes within the interactive system. In particular, no study primarily focuses on the cultural influences leading to the identified performance variability within the investigation proceedings. The cultural framework syntheses different theories and establishes that cultural factors can be effective identified during investigation processes. The study that defines and identifies these cultural influences is important for several reasons: first, it brings out the underlying cultural factors which leads to the accident. Secondly, it identifies the context in which the interaction took place, i.e. decision making.
