NHS drug errors may be causing up to 22,000 deaths per year (Jeremy Hunt — health secretary Feb. 2018). The international labour organisation say that world wide there are more than 2.3 million deaths per year due to occupational accidents or diseases. oO 6 Aworker dies every 15 seconds. 7 10 workers have an accident every second. 2 4 Hew big is the problem? 6 of 37 1 It is morally the right thing to do 2 The law insists we do w Stakeholders and your HSE policy insists we do 4 It’s more profitable 5 The discipline involved improves our performance in other areas Why aim for zero incidents? 7 of 37 Pain and suffering by those involved. __ Trauma by rescuers and clean-up parties | Heartache and deprivation by dependants.

When an accident occurs we are obliged, both morally and legally, to find out: a) what 2 happened and, b) what needs to be done to stop a recurrence. 3 Itis unrealistic to expect your OH&S MS to be optimum from the outset, 4 _ [tis unrealistic to expect your OH&S MS to remain optimum as things change throughout the life of the project e.g. plant, relationship with 3” party services etc. 5 Adjusting your OH&S MS through lessons learnt from minor incidents is often the only practicable way of keeping it close to optimum. Tripod Beta has been designed specifically for organisational incidents: is based on sound 6 _ scientific research, has been tested in the field and, been in use by many organisations in many industries for more than 30 years. 7 An investigation that does not refer to your OH&S MS is of limited value. | g Corrective actions that do not enhance your OH&S MS is of limited value - you are unlikely to “hold the gains” i.e. any lessons learnt will be short lived. g The Sticting Tripod Foundation (STF) is responsible for maintaining Tripod standards and enhancing the Tripod Beta process. You should become an accredited Tripod Beta Practitioner because: ‘2) The qualification is recognised internationally, | 10 b) The qualification is independent of your organisation. ¢) It provides independent, external assurance about your investigators. d) You become part of a world wide community with on-going support. e) Is proof of your personal continuing professional development (CPD). | Summary of session 17 of 37 The nature of accidents This session is about why organisational accidents occur & covers: 1 Why most incidents have more than one root cause.

It is a change of state whereby an OBJECT is adversely affected (or threatened) by an AGENT. Driver injured when car crashed into tree. Reputation damaged by failing to take responsibility for oil spill clean-up Warehouse damaged by fire. Sea polluted when an oil pipeline corroded and ruptured. Worker died after trench collapsed. Maintenance worker collapsed in tank due to low oxygen level. Usually occurs at a precise time but can be over an extended period with a start and stop time e.g. health issues. N OGrRONS Event - definition 1Bof 49 Agent Anything that has the potential to change, harm or damage an OBJECT A force (fall, collision, high pressure) Areactive environment (corrosion) Condition of surroundings (low oxygen level) Something that changes a persons condition e.g. fatigue — resulting in driver falling asleep at the wheel due to 10 hours non stop driving. Temperature (high or low). Ro Ons 5 6 Time (equipment wears out). 7 The actions of a person; Something done rather than not done.

Linking trios with an EVENT / AGENT node 25 of 45 1 Trios always start with an AGENT and OBJECT and end with an EVENT. 2 It doesn't matter whether the AGENT or OBJECT is shown on top — the first two show the AGENT on top but the final trio has the OBJECT upper most. Each trio has one of each i.e. EVENT, AGENT and an OBJECT. Trios can be connected via an EVENT / OBJECT or an EVENT / AGENT. 5, The node descriptions, the level of detail and, the tree as a whole should be sufficient to explain "what" happened The.core diagram showing “WHAT” happened 26 of 45 |, Wall needs: Painter | Supervisor aintin assigns job | 952% (7 9° || painting from panning to painter fear fz Painter knocks tin of Tin of paint falls from tool Tin of paint Paint spills hits person g Paint spills, from tin EVENTS usually occur at a precise time — an exception being health issues which may be over an extended period. Draw a timeline first — it helps in getting the sequence correct and complete. Itis usually better to show the incident in detail at the start of the investigation. EVENTS can be removed or combined after BARRIERS have been added The fewer the EVENTS the more likely BARRIERS will be overlooked Do not start the sequence with EVENTS that have no significance to the investigation e.g. you are unlikely to question why a wall needs painting or, job assigned to a painter, when you are investigating why a tin of paint fell onto a person's coat. ‘Sequence of EVENTs before starting the Tripod diagram 27 of 45 Painter Painter told to} | orking from f || Painter knocks paint above Tin of paint Paint spills | falls from too! {| | onto person tray below ladder ladder above tin of paint Timeline (for core trios only) ————> Painter working {from ladder above} Tin of paint falls from tool tray due. to painter knocking it.

Each leg is examined in turn. Each barrier is assessed as being adequate or not. Missing barriers are identified by looking at the tree as a whole and assessing if activity being conducted with risk at ALARP. The layout of the diagram and the descriptions help in this process. Barrier analysis in Tripod Beta 24 of 46 a & ons Construct the core diagram then examine each leg in turn and ask the following | 1 How does the company normally control the agent? 2 How does the company normally defend the object? ) 3 Is there a document that states what the barriers should be e.g. guideline / procedure / checklist / instruction / scope of work? 4 Can all the barriers be placed correctly or should an EVENT be broken down into smaller steps i.e. add another trio. 5 If the barrier had been implemented exactly as intended, was it capable of preventing the event? If not, show it as an\inadequate barrier.) 6 When all the intended barriers have been added assess if the risks associated with the job were ALARP (as low as reasonably practicable); if no, ask “what is required in law or good practice” — and add them to the diagram as missing barriers. 7 Abarrier overlooked is an improvement opportunity missed. 8 Barriers are the tangible output from your OH&S MS — they ARE your management system — more so than words on paper in your OH&S MS Kgy questions for the investigation 25 of 46 A measure which reduces the probability of releasing an agent's potential for harm and Barrier of reducing its consequences. There Is no node called “Barrier” in the Tripod Beta methodology; the symbol shown is an EFFECTIVE BARRIER A barrier either controls the agent or defends the object. ISO 45001 refers to them as preventive or protective measures. No barrier is perfect; each has a probability that it will fail. However, barriers shown on a Tripod Beta diagram are binary — they either work 100% or not at all; there are no points in between 6 Reliability can be improved by adding barriers — defences in depth Defences in depth should have the same barrier functionality but differing barrier systems e.g. no entry sign and one way dragon's teeth. g Barriers are the output from the organisation's risk management processes and can be: engineering, administrative, procedural or behavioural. Barriers in general 32 of 46 Bown] a a A barrier that was effective in -— restoring control or preventing further consequential injury or Effective damage following an event barrier The barrier worked as intended. The EVENT in a trio containing an EFFECTIVE BARRIER did not actually happen 6 e and is shown as a POTENTIAL EVENT to illustrate what could have happened. 3 Allsubsequent EVENTS after this first POTENTIAL EVENT also did not happen and are shown as POTENTIAL EVENTS. 4 The end EVENT cannot happen if there is one EFFECTIVE BARRIER anywhere in the diagram. 5 AN EFFECTIVE BARRIER is used to elevate the severiy of an incident so that there will be a higher level of investigation. Effective barrier - definition 33 of 46 _) — A barrier rendered ineffective by an —_f immediate cause.

They include barriers that were normally in place but were missing at the time of the EVENT e.g. a fire extinguisher not in it's normal place. In a reasonably well run organisation they are likely to be the most common. barrier states on a Tripod Beta diagram. Failed barrier - definition 34 of 46 A barrier identified and established by CO the organisation as a management control measure which was implemented as designed but still failed to prevent escalation as the design of the barrier did not fully take into account the circumstances of the event. Inadequate barrier 5 The BARRIER is shown letting the AGENT or OBJECT pass through a “gap” thereby allowing the AGENT and OBJECT to come together to create the EVENT. A BARRIER is in place but is not capable of controlling the AGENT or protecting the OBJECT. Often, an inadequate BARRIER is incorrectly shown as a failed barrier. The true nature of an inadequate barrier becomes apparent when the action described in the immediate cause cannot be allocated to one of the “human failing” categories. i.e. the perpetrator did exactly what he/she was told to do. They are due to the hazard being correctly identified but the assessment of risk or, the understanding of what is required of the BARRIER, is less than adequate. Inadequate barrier - definition 35 of 46 ; | A barrier not identified by the i —1—_ organisation as a management control measure but was required barrier ABARRIER should be in place but was not and was never intended. The hazard has not been identified or the risk incorrectly assessed. They are due to failures in managing risk or failure to assure compliance with legal requirements or best practice. In a well run organisation missing BARRIER are uncommon, MISSING BARRIERS can be spotted by doing a Level Of Protection Analysis. A missing BARRIER may also be spotted by subject matter expert looking at the entire Tripod diagram and asking “was this activity being conducted with associated risks as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP)’. Missing barrier - definition 36 of 46 { Narrative [ An explanatory note within the tripod diagram It can be used to give further explanation about any element within the diagram It can be used to explain why an EVENT did not take place when all barriers failed or there were no barriers in the trio i.e. favourable random chance (good luck), The entire Tripod Diagram should give a reasonable summary of the analysis and narrative statements are used to add clarity. Anarrative statement can be placed between any two nodes in a diagram; it 5 becomes attached to the connecting line i.e. unlike a “post-it a note” added anywhere on the diagram.

The flow-line is fitted with a pressure relief valve (PRV) and an isolation valve. The operator closed the flow-line isolation valve (at the gathering station end) before closing the valve at the wellhead. The oil well continued to flow and pressure built up in the flow-line.
