I don't know the % which identify human error, but it's rare that a single cause exists.

Even where the human makes the fatal error, you can always say "the designers should have ...."; there are a lot of systems on aircraft today designed to try to detect human errors, and more proposed. And often a bad or mis-thought MMI can contribute to human error too.
