A safety feedback loop IS a specific kind of information mechanism — a structured pathway that routes safety-relevant data from detection points (incidents, near-misses, audit findings) back into the design, training, and procedural systems that prevent future harm. Defined by its closed-loop structure: data collection, analysis, action assignment, implementation verification, and re-measurement. A safety feedback loop IS the learning nervous system of a safety management system.
