Situational Awareness Framework

The Situational Awareness Framework is a way to understand how individuals perceive and interpret their environment to make informed decisions. It involves three key stages: first, sensing – noticing relevant information around you; second, understanding – interpreting what that information means; and third, projecting – predicting future events or outcomes based on current data. This framework helps people stay alert, assess risks, and respond effectively in dynamic situations, whether in the workplace, driving, or emergency scenarios. Essentially, it’s about continuously gathering, understanding, and anticipating to act safely and efficiently.
