Accident prevention is traditionally based on a series of events that together lead up to the accident in question. This is an assessment of fundamental failures in physical factors, managerial factors and competences.

This is of course correct, but there are missing dimensions in terms of the mindset that prevails in the organisation, the risk appetite this mindset expresses and a basic understanding of when to take risks.

Many companies work according to the Iceberg model and believe that they can prevent future accidents by having handled a sufficient number of near misses. This may be true, but unfortunately, history shows that the number of accidents is not decreasing in line with the efforts made to prevent them. One can debate the validity of assessing the chance of prevention based on a mapping of previous incidents alone. This reservation is due to the fact that the model does not include factors such as risk appetite, culture and tradition. If these factors are taken out of the equation, we will miss the mark time and time again.

This course is based on addressing the factors common to the incidents that occur, which are quite different from those traditionally brought into play in accident investigations. You'll learn to look at accidents from a new perspective so you can effectively prevent similar incidents.
