Case Studies – Explosions
In recent years, more lives of workers were lost due to chemical explosions.
This WSH Bulletin aims to highlight the lessons learnt from 4 fatal incidents.
The Fault Tree Analysis comprising the 5M (i.e. Man, Machine, Medium,
Management and Mission) was used to identify the causal factors. The
5M-Model provides in-depth analysis of the cases and identifies the
contributing factors which might have led to the incidents. Please click
HERE for the detailed write-up. The explanation of the 5M-Model is
included in the Annex of the write-up.
