Método del árbol de causas: recolección de la información y forma que tomará el árbol
Introduction
The introduction discusses the approach to investigating workplace accidents using the Cause Tree method, focusing on information collection and the structure of the Cause Tree.
Information Collection for Cause Tree Analysis
- Collecting information involves conducting separate interviews with witnesses before a joint interview to clarify any inconsistencies.
- It is recommended not to record or take notes during interviews to prevent interviewees from being overly cautious.
Structure of Cause Tree Analysis
- The Cause Tree method aims to identify multiple causes of an accident without assigning blame.
- Avoid leading questions that may bias responses towards specific answers or justifications; focus on observable facts.
Information Organization for Investigation
This section emphasizes organizing investigation details around specific elements related to the workplace accident.
Key Investigation Elements
- Organize inquiries and observations around aspects such as work location, tasks performed, equipment used, and environmental conditions at the time of the accident.
- Consider variations in routine tasks that might have occurred on the day of the accident as they can provide valuable insights for investigation.
