In this post, we will look at Three Insightful Methods for Causal Analysis. Only three?! If you search online, you will probably find eight methods coming up: However, not all these methods are created equal! Only some provide real insight to the challenge of causal analysis. So, I’ve picked the best ones – based on […]
So, what I’m talking about today is safety and risk audit, that is about process, Q&A, and some personal experience. Also something called layered process audits, which I ran into while researching this webinar. I thought that sounded interesting – and it is! Those are today’s topics for the webinar. Audit Process I’m talking about […]
In my webinar ‘Five Ways to Identify Hazards’ I look at a mix of techniques. We need these diverse techniques to assure us (give justified confidence) that we have identified the full range of hazards associated with a system. To do this I draw on my 25 years of experience (see ‘Meet the Author‘, below) […]
In this post, ‘Exploring Causal Analysis: Techniques and Insights’, I provide a quick summary of my recent webinar. You can see a short video introduction below, or access the full webinar at my Safety Engineering Academy. Introduction: Causal analysis is a vital aspect of system safety engineering, offering insights into the root causes of issues […]
In this post ‘Full Function Hazard Logs: A Deep Dive into Relational Databases’, I explore some things we can do with a hazard log built upon a database. In my 25-year career in safety engineering, I’ve seen many hazard logs and hazard tracking systems. Most of them were hosted in Microsoft Excel, but there were […]
