What does safety mean? Definition of Terms
“Safety is the prevention of accidents and the mitigation of personal injury or property damage which may result from accidents.”
Mroz
This presentation is an introduction to concepts presented in text article, Landmarks in the History of Safety, pp.10-15.
![Page 8: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

What does the term “accident” mean?
“..An accident is a potentially harmful energy flow or environmental condition that is preceded by planning or operation oversight or omissions, resulting in conditions or actions that trigger the incident…..”
![Page 9: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Then what is safety relative to an accident?
“Safety is a condition or state of being resulting from the modification of human behavior, and/or design of the physical environment to reduce the possibility of hazards, thereby reducing accidents.”
Strasser et al.
![Page 10: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Incident vs. Accident Accidental triad
1. When an unwanted energy flow occurs or a hostile environmental condition develops.
2. Barriers or controls << than adequate.
3. Persons or objects are in the energy path or exposed to the environmental condition…
The accidental triad is complete.
![Page 11: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Definition of terms
Approaches to Use of Barriers.
1. Barriers on the energy source.
2. Barriers on the targets (person or objects).
3. Barriers between the energy flow and the targets.
4. Separation of the flow and targets by time or space.
![Page 12: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
Definition of Terms
Incident – an incident is not an accident--there have been no losses. The worst that has happened is a near miss. No persons or objects were in the energy flow.
You can remove the person from the energy flow or place a barrier between him and the energy flow.
![Page 13: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Definition of Terms We all need energy to do our
jobs and live our lives.
Then Safety can be defined as the preplanned management of energy without damaging or harmful energy flows.
You manage energy flow through people and materiel resources.
![Page 14: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

“..the absence of adequate barriers or controls, causes losses-injury, damage, or degraded performance-to the persons or objects in the path of the energy flow or exposed to the environmental conditions..”
![Page 15: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

“That occurrence in a sequence of events which usually produces unintended injury, death, or property damage”.

16
Definition of Terms
Hazard – condition or set of conditions that have the potential to produce injury and/or property damage.
Risk- probability that a hazard will be activated and produce injury or property damage and the severity of the hazard.
![Page 17: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17
Definition of Terms
Risk involves two components –
–(1) likelihood that negative situation
will occur.
–(2) severity of injury or damage if the
hazard is activated.

Theories of Accident Causation
Single Factor Theory
H. W. Heinrich’s Domino Theory (1932)
Study concluded that:
88% industrial accidents caused by fellow workers’ unsafe acts.
![Page 28: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Heinrich’s Domino Theory Theory has two central points:
Injuries caused by action of preceding factors.
Removal of central factor (unsafe act/hazardous) negates the action of preceding factors.
Prevents accidents via elimination.

Combination Theory
Often cause of accident cannot be explained by one theory.
Cause may be due to parts of several different models to varying degrees.

Theories of Accident CausationSummary
The domino theory of accident causation was one of the earliest developed.
The human factor theory of accident causation attributes accidents to a chain of event caused by human error.

Theories of Accident Causation•Epidemiological theory-models for epidemiological factors and disease good for epidemiological factors and accident.
•Systems theory views accident situation as combination of person, machine and environment.
![Page 57: 1 Instructor: Lee Reynolds, Associate Professor Department of Engineering Technology Texas Tech University](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032802/56649e175503460f94b0339b/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)

• Combination theory claims that no one model/theory can explain all accident.
