What are the 2 approaches to Cause and Effect Analysis?
|
5 Whys Technique |
|
|
What are the 6 Risk Identification and analysis techniques?
|
Questionnaires and Checklist Workshops Cause and Effect Analysis Failure Analysis Future States Analysis Strategy Analysis |
|
|
Questionnaires and Checklist Used for? Quantitative or Qualitative? Disadvantage? |
Qualitative May not expose all risk |
|
|
Workshops Used for? Quantitative or Qualitative? Disadvantage? |
Identifying risk ad determining likelihood and impact Qualitative Senior Mgt opinion may take precedence |
|
|
Brainstorming Techniques Used for? Quantitative or Qualitative? Disadvantage? Example? |
Risk identification and analysis Qualitative Time consuming Delphi technique |
|
|
Failure Analysis Used for? Types of failures? Disadvantage? |
Identifying causes of failure to prevent recurrences Not meeting sales, production goals, breakdown of equipment HAZOP, FTA (fault tree), FMEA (failure mode and effects analysis) |
|
|
Hazard and Operability Studies (HZAOP) How is it performed? |
Team of specialist from different operational areas study process and procedures to examine how failures can result in a hazard. Then docmentation is provided including plans for treating the risk. They use guide words such as "more" and "less" |
|
|
Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) What does it do? What does it provide? |
Identifies a specific event (top event) and then analyzes factors that conribute to it. Provides means for a systematic examination of problems. |
|
|
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) What does it do? When is it used? |
Identifies possible modes of failure and how those failures affect the system or process. Used to analyze probability and severity of failures. Used to improve process at the design stage. **Qualitative** |
|
|
Future States Analysis What does it do? What are the 2 types? |
Seek to determine what risks may develop in the future. Scenario Analysis & Monte Carlo Simulation |
|
|
Scenario Analysis Monte Carlo Simulations |
Part of Future State Analysis Examines how the environment may be influenced by emerging developments. Simulates a range of outcomes using random variables such as competitor price levels and product demand. **computer model** |
|
|
Strategy Analysis What does it do? What are the 2 types |
Identifies risk related to an organizations overall vision, mission and goals over a 3 to 5 year period. SWOT & PEST |
|
|
SWOT PEST |
Part of Strategy Analysis Starts with an internal evaluation of the organizations strengths and weaknesses and is followed by an evaluation of external opportunities and threats. Used with SWOT it examines political, economic, social and technological threats and opportunities. **Interest rates, inflation, growth rates** |
|
|
What are 3 types of Accident Causation?
|
Basic - Personal or Environmental factors Direct Causes - Unplanned release of energy Indirect or Underlying Causes - Unsafe acts or conditions
|
|
|
What are the 5 theories of Accident Causation?
|
Sequence of events (domino theory) Energy transfer theory The technique of operations review (TOR) Change analysis Job safety analysis |
|
|
What theory states that removing one of the 5 chain of accident factors will prevent the accident from occurring? What is the most critical of the 5 to remove? |
Sequence of Events (Domino) #3 - unsafe act and or mechanical or physical hazard |
|
|
What theory states that the basic cause f accidents is energy out of control? How many strategies does this include? |
Energy Transfer theory 10 basic strategies |
|
|
What theory focuses on ineffective management regarding workplace accidents?
|
Technique of operations review (TOR)
|
|
|
What theory takes a series of "what if" questions and projects the consequences for each of the changes and for all feasible combinations of change?
|
Change analysis |
|
|
What theory is one of the most universally applicable and versatile for analyzing cause of accidents? **Jobs are broken down into sequential steps** |
Job Safety analysis
|
|
|
What are the 4 features of a system according to the discipline of System Safety?
|
Components Purpose Environment Life Cycle |
|
|
What are the 5 phases of the Life Cycle?
|
Engineering Production Operational Disposal |
|
|
What are 4 loss control techniques for hazard risk?
|
Loss Prevention Loss Reduction Separation, Duplication, and Diversification |
