  2. What is Ergonomics?

  3. What is an Accident? A sequence of logically and chronologically related deviating events involving an incident that results in injury to personnel or damage to the environment or material assets.

  4. Accident Investigation

  5. The purpose of accident investigation • Identify and describe the true course of events (what, where,when) • Identify the direct and root causes / contributing factors of the accident (why) • Identify risk reducing measures to prevent future, comparable accidents (learning) • Investigate and evaluate the basis for potential criminal prosecution (blame) • Evaluate the question of guilt in order to assess the liability for compensation (pay)

  6. The accident investigation process

  7. Three phases in accident investigation

  8. Collecting evidence and facts • Human or testamentary evidence Human or testamentary evidence includes witness statements and observations. • Physical evidence Physical evidence is matter related to the accident (e.g. equipment, parts, debris, hardware, and other physical items). • Documentary evidence Documentary evidence includes paper and electronic information, such as records, reports, procedures, and documentation.

  9. Analysis of evidence and facts • What happened where and when? • Why did it happen? types of causal factors: Direct cause Contributing causes Root causes

  10. Recommendations and reporting • Hendrick and Benner (1987) says that two thoughts should be kept in mind regarding accident reports: • Investigations are remembered trough their reports • The best investigation will be wasted by a poor report.

  11. Methods for accident investigation • TRIPOD • Barrier analysis • Change analysis. • Events and causal factors analysis

  12. OTHER ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION METHODS • Fault tree analysis • Root cause analysis • Events and causal factors charting (ECFC) • Event tree analysis • MORT • Systematic Cause Analysis Technique (SCAT) • (Sequential timed events plotting) • MTO-analysis • Accident Analysis and Barrier Function (AEB) Method • Acci-map

  13. TRIPOD _BETA Definition Advantages Phases: • Diagram Tripod_beta • Hazard conduct • accident causation model

  14. Diagram Tripod_beta Elements • Event • Hazard • Target

  15. Hazard conduct

  16. TRIPOD Beta accident causation model

  17. Example on a TRIPOD Beta analysis

  18. Thanks for your attention
