  3. Latent Failures Hazards and Unsafe Acts Accidents Historic perspective We came from: “Blaming the poor guy who handled erroneously” • and we went to • understanding the relations • between: • Fallible decisions • Latent Failures • Preconditions • Active Failures • Incidents

  4. TRIPOD philosophy

  5. Current TRIPOD Beta diagram (simplified)

  6. Where we were in 1996 • Making benefit of the TRIPOD philosophy: • Answering the “why” questions at the root of the erroneous handling of the individual(identifying the systemic causes of incidents) • Improving the quality of the “fact finding” as a spin off of the depth of the TRIPOD investigation but recognising • That a TRIPOD BRF-profile did not provide sufficient granularity on what’ caused incidents to happen: • The eleven Basic Risk Factors were too generic to point in a transparent and consistent way towards how the management controls would have to be corrected or improved

  7. Improvement in 1996

  8. Achieved in 1996 • Increased quality of HSE-management: • In the improvement of the management system and management controls, the ACT-phase of the Deming Cycle is linked to the CHECK-phase • The “PLAN – DO – CHECK – ACT – PLAN” is closed • Systemic Failures lead to corrective actions at managerial level Deming Cycle

  9. Where we were in 2005 • Making benefit of the TRIPOD philosophy: • Answering the “why” questions at the root of the erroneous handling of the individual(identifying the systemic causes of incidents) • Improving the quality of the “fact finding” as a spin off of the depth of the TRIPOD investigation • Defining generic improvements to management controls, but this was done in a rather awkward way but recognising • Inefficiencies in the TRIPOD process until then: • Inconsistencies in classifying systemic causes into their Basic Risk Factors • Inefficiency in subdividing the Basic Risk Factors into manageable topics

  10. What we changed in 2005 • Usage of CausedBy/LeadsTo checklists to increase consistency of selection • From 48 ad hoc defined categories to 144 CausedBy-categories • See next slide for an example • Recording the CausedBy-classification in the Tripod analysis in the current Incident registration system (SCIPR) • See next slide for an example

  11. Example of CausedBy/LeadsTo checklist

  12. What we changed in 2005 • Usage of CausedBy/LeadsTo checklists to increase consistency of selection • From 48 ad hoc defined categories to 144 CausedBy-categories • See next slide for an example • Recording the CausedBy-classification in the Tripod analysis and in the current Incident registration system (SCIPR) • See next slide for an example

  13. What we changed in 2005

  14. What we achieved 2005: understanding what failed and what to do (Detailed diagnosis and defined treatment) 1990: man at blame 2006 onwards: improving our HSE-MS 1996: understanding Systemic Failures (Diagnosis)

  15. Prospect • Although the first multi-incident Tripod analysis is scheduled for early 2007 (derived from the 2006 single-incident TRIPOD analyses), trials have already demonstrated that the last changes can be considered to be substantial improvement: • Consistency will increase substantially due to the checks enabled by the CausedBy-sentences • Efficiency will increase because of the easy reporting of Tripod Basic Risk Factors and their CausedBy-categories • Increased buy-in for modifications or corrections of HSE-management system and management controls
