CTSafeย Center is in partnership with Asian Society ofย Safety and Health Professionals (ASSHP) to provide an Accident Investigationย course inย the Tripod methodology.
Supervisors and managers whose roles are to manage safety at work
By the end of this training, participants will be empowered to:
Contextualize: Understand how Tripod Beta functions as a critical diagnostic tool within the broader HSE Management System.
Analyze: Apply the knowledge and specialized software tools required to conduct a rigorous Tripod analysis of any operational incident.
Diagnose: Pinpoint specific latent failures and deficiencies within the HSE-MS that acted as the “pathogens” leading to an incident.
Remediate: Formulate high-quality recommendations that address systemic root causes, ensuring sustainable safety improvements across the organization
The Philosophy of Tripod: Moving from “Blame Culture” to “Just Culture.”
The Swiss Cheese Model: Exploring James Reasonโs theory of organizational accidents.
Course Roadmap: Understanding the journey from incident occurrence to systemic change.
Systemic Interconnectivity: How leadership, planning, and risk management influence frontline behavior.
The Feedback Loop: Using incidents as “free lessons” to test the health of the management system.
The Role of Barriers: Defining technical, human, and organizational safeguards.
Proactive vs. Reactive: Linking the Hazard and Effects Management Process (HEMP) to incident investigation.
The Bow-tie Connection: Using the Bow-tie diagram as the “blueprint” for what should have happened.
Threats and Escalation Factors: Identifying where the preventive and recovery barriers were originally intended to stand.
The Trio of an Incident: Defining the Hazard (energy source), the Event (loss of control), and the Target (what was harmed).
Incident Path Construction: Mapping the sequence of events leading to the outcome.
Evidence Gathering: P.E.E.P. (People, Environment, Equipment, Paperwork).
Interviewing Techniques: Cognitive interviewing to extract facts without bias.
Timeline Reconstruction: Building a solid factual foundation before starting the Tripod analysis.
The Trio-Barrier Logic: Identifying which barriers failed and why.
Active Failures: Identifying the “Immediate Cause” or the specific action/omission at the sharp end.
Preconditions: Understanding the environmental or psychological state of the worker at the time (e.g., fatigue, distraction).
Latent Failures (BRCs): Identifying the Basic Risk Factors (e.g., poor design, communication gaps, inadequate training).
The Tripod Beta Tree: Constructing the visual logic tree that connects the Event to the Organizational Pathogens.
Software Application: Practical exercises using Tripod Beta software to build logical and validated incident trees.
SMART Recommendations: Writing actions that address the BRCs (systemic) rather than just the Active Failures (symptoms).
The Investigation Report: Communicating complex findings to senior management in a clear, actionable format.
Closing the Loop: Tracking the implementation of corrective actions to ensure the HSE-MS is strengthened.
