Efficiency–thoroughness trade-off principle
The efficiency–thoroughness trade-off principle (or ETTO principle) is the principle that there is a trade-off between efficiency or effectiveness on one hand, and thoroughness (such as safety assurance and human reliability) on the other.[1] In accordance with this principle, demands for productivity tend to reduce thoroughness while demands for safety reduce efficiency.[2]
