Question

Describe the special applications applies for safety programs?

Expert Solution
Step 1

The goal of safety programs is to protect workers and actual hazards and from any potentially significant risks, and also establish compliance with both federal and OSHA standards.

The object of a system safety analysis is to ascertain the factors which have a bearing on the probability of the unwanted occurrences, to study the way in which these occurrences take place and, ultimately, to develop preventive measures to reduce their probability.

The analytic phase of the problem can be divided into two main aspects:

1.     identification and description of the types of dysfunction or maladjustment

2.     identification of the sequences of dysfunctions that combine one with another (or with more “normal” occurrences) to lead ultimately to the unwanted occurrence itself, and the assessment of their likelihood.
