ACCIDENT CAUSATION ACCIDENT CAUSATION --

Many theorists and psychologists Many theorists and psychologists have conducted in-depth studies in have conducted in-depth studies in the field of industrial safety. the field of industrial safety.

Those studies prove that Those studies prove that

Accidents do not occur

They are caused

ACCIDENT CAUSATIONACCIDENT CAUSATION - - (cont)(cont)

Dr.H.W.Heinrich, One of the pioneer researchers in safety management, after analyzing 75,000 accidents, came to the conclusion that

98% are Preventable and

2% are Unpreventable.

Further, he classified the causes into two-

i.e. Unsafe actions (88%) and

Unsafe conditions (10%)

All such accidents are found to be due to human failure.

ACCIDENT CAUSATION:- ACCIDENT CAUSATION:- (cont)(cont)

Dr. Heinrich further explained that the process of accident causation is a chain of events.

This sequence of accident causation process is termed “Five Domino Theory”, with each Domino appearing one after another viz.

1) Faulty social environment 2) Fault of persons3) Unsafe actions / Unsafe condition4) Accidents5) Injury / Losses

ACCIDENT CAUSATION:- ACCIDENT CAUSATION:- (cont)(cont)

Frank E Bird has gone further to identifyexact causes of accidents. Lack of control by the management would be

the primary link in the chain of accidents causation. i.e. the root or basic cause of accidents is

“The lack of control by the management.”

Wherever substandard practices and conditions are permitted to exist, the accidents do mostly occur.

• Edward Adam confirms that the unsafe actions and unsafe conditions are arising out of operational errors made by the Managers or Supervisors.

• In other words the interest taken by the top management will reflect on the Safety of the company as a whole.

• D.A.Weaver has updated the Domino Theory of Heinrich and concluded that

the unsafe action or unsafe condition are only proximate causes ascribed to an accident .

Where as management practices in

Policy, Priorities, Organizational structure, Decision making, Evaluation, Control and Administration are the root causes behind them.

• Good ventilation,

• Good illumination,

• Changing processes

Eg. Dry process to wet process, Manual handling to Mechanical handling,

Enclosing and isolating process.

Education:-Education:-

• Educating employees and training them in different safety aspects.

Measurement of Measurement of Safety performance:-Safety performance:-

There are 3 types of injury rates:

1) Frequency rate

2) Severity rate

3) Incidence rate

Frequency rate :Frequency rate :i.e., How often do injury occur ?

-Defined as the disabling (lost time) injuries per 106 man-hours worked

FA = No. of reporable lost time injury * 106

Man hours worked

Severity rate :Severity rate :-i.e., How serious are the injuries ?

-Defined as the number of days of lost time per 106 man-hours worked

SA = Man days lost due to lost time injury * 106

Man hours worked

IIncidence rate :ncidence rate :-i.e., How serious are the injuries ?-is the ratio of the number injuries

to the number of persons during the period under review.

-It is expressed as the no. of injuries per 1000 persons employed

IA = Number of lost time injuries * 1000

Average No. of persons employed
