N2 - There has been strong interest in the new and emerging field called resilience engineering. This field has been quick to align itself with many existing safety disciplines, but it has also distanced itself from the field of human reliability analysis. To date, the discussion has been somewhat one-sided, with much discussion about the new insights afforded by resilience engineering. This paper presents an attempt to address resilience engineering from the perspective of human reliability analysis (HRA). It further, by means of example, attempts to review a misadministration example from the literature and evaluate that example in terms of resilience and HRA concepts. This paper seeks to clarify and ultimately refute the arguments that have served to divide HRA and resilience engineering by showing that the underlying analyses have complementary perspectives for the risk analyst and systems designer.
