Production Technology [Weekly Topic]: Accident Analysis (10-11-28~12-5)

The direct cause was improper operation, namely placing the pin on the bucket lid; moreover, the responsible person failed to inform those concerned about the safety hazards associated with their role or the operations being carried out, nor did they establish any appropriate safety measures. The indirect cause was that Li did not wear a safety helmet. Violation: The driver performed lifting operations on a resin tank with debris on its lid; moreover, no one should stand under the lifted object – both of these actions constitute violations. Relevant measures: Strictly enforce the operating regulations and requirements for special equipment, while improving the basic competence of operators and supervisors

1. Immediate cause: A pin from the carriage panel fell and injured Li； Indirect cause: The plate pins in the carriage were not properly positioned. 2.a. No personal protective equipment (helmets) was worn within the factory premises ； b. Place items that are prone to falling at a high height ； c. Being too close to motor vehicles. 3.a. Personal protective equipment must be worn to enter the factory premises ； b. Standardize the placement of items ； c. Strengthen employee safety training.

Reply to 1# shmily327: The direct cause was that the pins on the carriage panel were not placed in their designated positions, which led to them falling and injuring people. Indirect cause: Li failed to wear a safety helmet. What violations did the workers commit? 1. Pins from the carriage panels are left scattered at the site. 2. Safety helmets are not worn at the site. How can similar accidents be prevented from happening again? 1. Strengthen employee training and establish rules for the proper placement of items at the construction site. 2. Strengthen employee training by ensuring that protective equipment is worn as required.

Indirect responsibility – forklift operator, lack of concentration ； Li didn’t wear a safety helmet and was in the wrong position. 1. Direct responsibility—the person who left those screws lying around ； 2. Indirect liability – the forklift driver was inattentive, and Li did not wear a safety helmet

Reply to 1# shmily327: The direct cause was the pin hitting the head； The indirect cause is inadequate safety protection ； Violation: It refers to placing pins on the goods without having the loading personnel clean them up as required ；

Immediate cause: The pin was placed on the bucket. Indirect cause: The operator did not follow the operating procedures and failed to wear a safety helmet.

Regarding humans, there are two aspects: the forklift driver failed to adequately assess the potential situations that could arise during bucket loading, and he also estimated the required movement range to be too large, which led to the pins falling out； It’s strange to me regarding the person who got injured – why didn’t they wear a helmet? The most basic personal protective equipment in chemical plants includes safety helmets, safety shoes, work uniforms, and so on. Objects: A falling pin represents an unsafe condition of such objects. Pins that are prone to falling should be stored in a dedicated place, or secured with chains to some fixed point, so as not to interfere with operations and to avoid the risk of them falling. In this accident, unsafe conditions of the objects and unsafe operating practices by humans were the direct causes; the indirect cause could be considered as inadequate labor protection. Without understanding the barrel-loading process, the forklift driver must have violated some regulations. Prevention measure: Weld a pin to a chain at some location on the box; this does not affect operation and is convenient, while also reducing the likelihood of the pin falling off ； For forklift operators, standardize their operations to reduce accidents caused by improper handling ； Staff are required to wear the appropriate personal protective equipment, especially safety helmets. As an aside, many small factories, especially those in the fine chemicals industry, can be operated by individuals due to low investment requirements. Owners of such factories pay little attention to safety and fail to provide employees with basic protective measures. In addition to everyday personal protective equipment, there should also be specialized gear for protecting against toxic and harmful chemicals. From the news, it can be seen that many people in China do not have any protection against occupational diseases; especially in those small factories, which, in pursuit of maximum profits, completely ignore the safety of their employees.

Reply to 1# shmily327: Immediate cause: The pin was not in a stable position, and the forklift hitting the tank caused the pin to fall. Indirect causes: Unstable operation of the forklift and inadequate personal protection (use of safety helmets). Violations: Failure to wear safety helmets, careless operation of the forklift, and insufficient on-site supervision. Measures: Improve personal protection, provide safety training, and strictly follow operating procedures

Immediate cause: The pin fell and hit Li. Indirect cause: Li lacked a sense of safety and did not wear a helmet. Illegal operation: After removing the pin, it should not be placed in a bucket to prevent it from falling； When loading the cargo, the forklift driver failed to remove the pins, which contributed to an increased risk of accidents. Li did not wear protective equipment such as a safety helmet. To prevent such accidents, it is necessary to strengthen labor safety education and raise safety awareness
