Description

The occurrence of an accident is a misfortune, that it is repeated is a FAILURE! With this maxim always in mind, the occurrence of accidents must help us find out where we are failing, and what we should do differently. This book aims to raise awareness about the need to investigate all incidents that occur in the company, regardless of severity, in addition to defining a process for this investigation, and a methodology for investigating multi-causal events, the Causal tree. The process introduced in this book is at the heart of any health and safety management system, it is essential for its improvement, and a mandatory requirement in certifiable management systems such as ISO45001. In the same way, this process can be extended to the investigation of any unwanted event in the company, environmental incident, product non-conformity, ... being also useful for the ISO14001 and ISO9001 standards.
