Book Description

This new edition of a standard in the field is the most complete treatment available on modern methods of accident investigation. The investigation process is divided into three phases: preparation and planning, analytical methods and reporting, and corrective actions designed to prevent recurrence. Techniques discussed are general and can be applied to a wide range of industrial accidents. Topics covered include investigation concepts, the pitfalls of government intervention, legal aspects, multilinear events sequencing, and management oversight and risk tree (MORT). There is new material on the electronic and computer industries and on S-T-E-P accident investigation. A new chapter, ``A Generic Approach to Mishap Investigation,'' puts the entire process in perspective.

Book Description

"............ An easy to understand compilation on Accident & Incident investigation" "............ a complete guide from scratch to Accident Report Writing" "............ one of the best professionally written books on the subject" "............ I can truly say, after starting I did not want to end the Book" The Book is an ultimate guide on conducting training on Accident and Incident Investigation at work sites. It covers procedures relevant inputs for production sites, Oil & Gas Industry, Chemical and Pharmaceutical industries. This book has been prepared in an easy to understand format which can be used as a Training Material too by anyone including QHSE/Safety trainers. Safety hazards are the most common type of hazard and they are present in virtually every workplace at one time or another. These hazards are unsafe conditions in a facility that can cause injury, illness, or even death. Near Miss, Accident and Incident have been explained in detail by way of examples. The method of reporting has also been described in depth. Steps to avoid Near miss and Accidents have been enumerated. The Heinrich Safety triangle model has also been discussed. This book will cover all major aspects of Accident and Incident investigation. The incidents and techniques used for investigation have been dealt in detail including questions to be put to the injured and people available at the investigation scene. How and when to interrogate has been clearly stated in the contents. The six step process of Investigation has been explained in detail including how to proceed with interviews. The description is supported by pictures for better understanding of concepts in a very concise way. The annexure provides Accident Notification, Investigation Report and Recommendation formats for report writing. The author is Institute of Learning and Management, UK certified Trainer and ISO 9001-2015 DNV & Bureau Veritas certified QMS/EMS Lead Auditor having 38 years of experience handling HSE/Safety and Training function in various industries in India and abroad. This book is a tribute to the Construction, Chemical, Petrochemical and Oil & Gas Industry.

Book Description

This book explains how accidents and high potential near-miss incidents are caused, and how to eliminate recurrences by effective accident investigation methods. It shows how to conduct an immediate and root cause analysis so that remedial measures can be taken to prevent a recurrence of similar events. The book shows how to apply the Logical Sequence Accident Investigation Method in the case studies presented. The book: Provides a practical guide to accident causes, investigation and prevention. Explains immediate and root causes in detail. Gives a number of problem-solving methods for the accident investigator to use. Introduces the Logical Sequence Accident Investigation Method. Provides a practical accident investigation evaluation system. The book discusses important topics including hazard identification and risk assessment, workplace health and safety, accident causation and prevention theories, the updated accident domino sequence, as well as safety management system standards and controls. The text is primarily written for professionals and graduate students in the fields of occupational health and safety, ergonomics and human factors engineering.

Book Description

Safety-I is defined as the freedom from unacceptable harm. The purpose of traditional safety management is therefore to find ways to ensure this ‘freedom’. But as socio-technical systems steadily have become larger and less tractable, this has become harder to do. Resilience engineering pointed out from the very beginning that resilient performance - an organisation’s ability to function as required under expected and unexpected conditions alike – required more than the prevention of incidents and accidents. This developed into a new interpretation of safety (Safety-II) and consequently a new form of safety management. Safety-II changes safety management from protective safety and a focus on how things can go wrong, to productive safety and a focus on how things can and do go well. For Safety-II, the aim is not just the elimination of hazards and the prevention of failures and malfunctions but also how best to develop an organisation’s potentials for resilient performance – the way it responds, monitors, learns, and anticipates. That requires models and methods that go beyond the Safety-I toolbox. This book introduces a comprehensive approach for the management of Safety-II, called the Resilience Assessment Grid (RAG). It explains the principles of the RAG and how it can be used to develop the resilience potentials. The RAG provides four sets of diagnostic and formative questions that can be tailored to any organisation. The questions are based on the principles of resilience engineering and backed by practical experience from several domains. Safety-II in Practice is for both the safety professional and academic reader. For the professional, it presents a workable method (RAG) for the management of Safety-II, with a proven track record. For academic and student readers, the book is a concise and practical presentation of resilience engineering.
