ACCIDENT CAUSATION Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC1

Early Man

Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC2

Industrial Revolution Factory managers reasoned that workers were hurt because — Number is Up Carelessness

People Error

ACCIDENT Act of God

Cost of doing Business PEOPLE PROBLEM Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC3

Domino Theory 1932 First Scientific Approach to Accident/Prevention - H.W. Heinrich.

“Industrial Accident Prevention”

Social Environment and Ancestry

Fault of the Person (Carelessness)

Unsafe Act or Condition

Accident

Injury

Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC4

MISTAKES OF PEOPLE

Heinrich’s Theorems ●

INJURY - caused by accidents.



ACCIDENTS - caused by an unsafe act – injured person or an unsafe condition – work place.



UNSAFE ACTS/CONDITIONS - caused by careless persons or poorly designed or improperly maintained equipment.



FAULT OF PERSONS - created by social environment or acquired by ancestry.



SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT/ANCESTRY - where and how a person was raised and educated. Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC5

Heinrich’s Theory Corrective Action Sequence (The three “E”s) 

Engineering



Education



Enforcement Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC6

Modern Causation Model OPERATING ERROR

RESULT:

MISHAP (POSSIBLE)

-No damage or injury -Many fatalities -Major damage

Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC7

Modern Causation ● ●

How accidents are caused & how to correct those causes. Parallels Heinrich's to a point. 

Injury is called RESULT, indicating it could involve damage as well as personal injury and the result can range from no damage to the very severe.



The word MISHAP is used rather than Accident to avoid the popular misunderstanding that an accident necessarily involves injury or damage.



Finally, the term OPERATING ERROR is used instead of Unsafe Act & Unsafe condition. Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC8

Examples Operating Errors: 

Being in an unsafe position



Stacking supplies in unstable stacks



Poor housekeeping



Removing a guard Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC9

Systems Defect 



Revolutionized accident prevention A weakness in the design or operation of a system or program

Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC10

Examples Systems defects include: 

Improper assignment of responsibility



Improper climate of motivation



Inadequate training and education



Inadequate equipment and supplies



Improper procedures for the selection & assignment of personnel



Improper allocation of funds Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC11

Modern Causation Model SYSTEM DEFECTS

OPERATING ERRORS

RESULT:

MISHAP (POSSIBLE)

Operating Errors occur because people make mistakes, but more importantly, they occur because of

-No damage or injury -Many fatalities -Major damage

SYSTEM DEFECTS Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC12

Modern Causation Model Managers design the Systems COMMAND ERROR

SYSTEM DEFECTS

RESULT:

System defects occur because of

MANAGEMENT / COMMAND ERROR Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC13

Safety Program Defect A defect in some aspect of the safety program that allows an avoidable error to exist. 

Ineffective Information Collection



Weak Causation Analysis



Poor Countermeasures



Inadequate Implementation Procedures



Inadequate Control Protect the Force Through Risk Management

AC14

Safety Management Error A weakness in the knowledge or motivation of the safety manager that permits a preventable defect in the safety program to exist.

AC16

Near-Miss Relationship 



Initial studies show for each disabling injury, there were 29 minor injuries and 300 close calls/no injury. Recent studies indicate for each serious result there are 59 minor and 600 near-misses. INITIAL STUDIES

1 29 300

SERIOUS MINOR CLOSE CALL

RECENT STUDIES

Seven Avenues There are seven avenues through which we can initiate countermeasures. None of these areas overlap. They are:  Safety management error  Safety program defect  Management / Command error  System defect  Operating error  Mishap  Result Protect the Force Through Risk Management

Army Systems Model A system is simply a group of interrelated parts which, when working together as they were designed to do, accomplish a goal. Using this analogy, an installation or organization can be viewed as a system. The elements of the Army Systems Model are:  Task  Person  Training  Environment  Materiel Protect the Force Through Risk Management
