What is an
Accident or Incident ?
Definitions
Incident
An unplanned event or chain of events, which has
or could have caused injury or illness to people
and/or damage (loss) to assets, the environment
Accident
An event which resulted injuries or illness to
people and/or damage (loss) to assets and the
environments
Near Miss
An event which did not result in injuries or illness
to people and/or damage (loss) to assets and the
environment

Investigation Team
• Minor Incidents
• Relevant line supervisor should lead a team
of staff from line with HSE staff to facilitate
the process
• Major incidents
• Team to be lead by senior manager trained in
incident investigation and comprise of
experienced line and HSE staff
• System of work
• Work instruction
• Variations from safe practice/ Instructions
• Workplace conditions
• Environmental conditions
• Exact location of incident
• Materials/Equipment/ Tools used or
handled

The ILCI Loss Causation Model
Definitions
• Improper lifting
• Horseplay
Job Factors
• Inadequate leadership and/or supervision
• Inadequate work standards
• Inadequate maintenance of tools and equipment
• Lack of proper tools and equipment
• Incorrect equipment and tools purchased,
Lack of Control (as per ILCI)
Pre-contact
• Lack of risk prevention programme
• Lack of activities in safety programme
• Inadequate inspections/ audits and follow up on action items
• Lack of Training
Contact
• Not placing barricades to isolate scene of incident
• Not reducing the amount of energy released
• Not using less harmful substances
• Not modifying contact surfaces
Post-contact
• No proper emergency response plans
• Lack of resources and equipment to deal with emergencies
• Slow reaction to deal with emergencies and rectifying faults
Example
An unprotected worker gets burnt when he
comes in hot pipes
Unsafe act
Worker gets
burnt
Unsafe condition
Insulation is damaged

TRIPOD –BETA Investigation

TRIPOD - BETA
•The TRIPOD - BETA methodology combines
concept of HSE Risk management and the accident
causation theory

Latent Failures
• Hardware (HW)
• Design Engineering (DE)
• Maintenance Mgmt. (MM)
• Procedures (PR)
• Error-enforcing conditions (EC)
• Housekeeping (HK)
• Incompatible Goals (IG)
• Communication (CO)
• Organisation (OR)
• Training (TR)
• Defences (DF)
Latent Failures
1. Hardware (HW)
Failures due to poor quality of materials or
construction, ageing and non- availability of
hardware.
This GFT does not include
- error generated by poorly designed equipment
- hardware failures due to poor maintenance
2. Design (DE)
Deficiencies in layout or design of facilities,
plant, equipment and tools that lead to misuse
or unsafe acts
Latent Failures
4. Procedures (PR)
Unclear, unavailable, incorrect or unusable task
information that has been established to
achieve desired results
Latent Failures
5. Error- enforcing conditions (EC)
Factors such as time pressures, changes in
work patterns, physical working conditions
(noisy, hot, cold) etc. acting on the individual or
in the workplace that lead to unsafe acts, errors
and violations
6. Housekeeping (HK)
Tolerance of deficiencies in conditions of
tidiness and cleanliness of facilities and
workspaces or in the provision of adequate
resources for cleaning and waste removal
Latent Failures
7. Incompatible Goals (IG)
Failure to manage conflict; between
organisational goals, such as safety and
production; between formalised procedures and
informal work methods; between demands of
individual tasks and personal distractions and
pre-occupations
8. Communication (CO)
Failure in transmitting relevant information for
the safe and effective operation of the
organisation to appropriate parties in clear,
unambiguous and intelligble form
Latent Failures
9. Organisation (OR)
Deficiencies in the structure of the company or
the way it conducts its business that allow
safety responsibilities to be ill-defined and the
overlooking of warning signs
10. Training (TR)
Deficiencies in the system for providing the
necessary awareness, knowledge or skill to the
relevant individuals in the organisation formally
and on-the-job
11. Defences (DF)
Failures in the systems, facilities and equipment
for control or containment of hazards or for the
mitigation of consequences resulting from
human or component failures
