Study Notes
Domain 2 Management System
- Domain 2 represents 13.34% of the total content.
Management Theories
- Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs proposes that human motivation stems from unsatisfied needs.
- Lower-level needs (physiological, safety, love/belonging, esteem) must be met before higher-level needs (self-actualization) can motivate.
- Once a lower-level need is satisfied, it no longer serves as a motivator.
McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y
- Theory X: Employees are motivated primarily by monetary rewards and security.
- Theory Y: Employees are motivated by esteem and self-actualization needs.
Herzberg Motivational Theory
- Hygiene factors: Supervision, interpersonal relationships, salary, physical working conditions. Rarely cited as motivators.
- Motivation factors: Achievement, advancement, recognition, responsibility. Motivators.
Management By Objectives (MBO)
- MBO involves agreeing on objectives within an organization.
- Managers and employees agree on objectives and understand them within the organization.
- Doing so helps achieve employee personal goals and positively impacts organizational success.
Contingency Theory
- Claims that there is no single best way to organize a corporation, lead a company or make decisions.
Systems Theory
- Interdisciplinary theory about complex systems.
- Frameworks for investigating or describing groups of interconnected objects producing a result.
Chaos Theory
- Branch of mathematics, physics, and philosophy.
- Studies the behaviors of dynamical systems that are very sensitive to initial conditions.
Management Styles
- Autocratic leader/manager makes all decisions unilaterally.
- Directive Democrat Leader allows participation in decision-making but closely supervises employees.
- Directive Autocrat Leader makes decisions unilaterally and closely supervises employees.
- Permissive Democrat Leader allows employees to participate in decision making and gives subordinates some latitude.
- Permissive Autocrat Leader makes decisions unilaterally but gives employees latitude in carrying out the work.
Accident Causation and Investigation Techniques
- Domino Theory: An accident is one factor in a sequence that may lead to injury.
- 3 E controls: Engineering, education, and enforcement.
- Accident is any unplanned, uncontrolled event that results in personal injury or property damage.
Human Factors Theory
- Accidents are entirely the result of human error.
- Overload occurs when work tasks are beyond worker capability.
- Inappropriate Worker Response includes errors and ignoring safe working procedures.
Accident/Incident Theory (Petersen)
- Overload (Pressure): stress from pressure, fatigue and motivation.
- Ergonomic traps: incompatible workstations (size, force, reach, feel) and incompatible expectations.
- Human error: errors by an individual.
- System failure: policy, responsibility, training, inspection, correction, and standards.
Epidemiological Theory
- Focuses on the relationship between industrial hygiene and environmental factors causing disease.
Systems Theory
- Man, liveware, machine, and surroundings are interconnected which contribute to or prevent accident conditions.
Energy Release Theory
- Techniques to reduce accidents include preventing energy buildup, reducing the initial amount of energy, preventing energy release, controlling energy release, and separating the energy from the living or nonliving object.
Behavior-Based Safety (BBS)
- A multistage process leading to observation, feedback, and continuous improvement.
- Elements: Identification of behaviors affecting safety, defining behaviors, implementing mechanisms for measuring behaviors, providing feedback, and reinforcing positive progress.
Modern Causation Model
- Injury or damage can range from no damage to severe damage.
- The model includes operating system errors, systems defects, safety program defects, and safety management errors
Accident Investigation Techniques
- Primary purpose to prevent recurrence of the same accident.
- Useful information can be acquired from witnesses, reports, and observations, and an analysis of operating procedures.
- Interview witnesses as soon as possible after the accident, addressing the purpose of the investigation and putting the witness at ease
Problem-Solving Techniques
- The scientific method: making observations, developing hypotheses, testing the hypotheses, and formulating hypotheses.
- Principles: agreement, differences, and concomitant variation.
Management Oversight and Risk Tree (MORT)
- A diagram and process to help identify and assess risks associated with an operation and avoid oversights/omissions
Gross Hazard Analysis (GHA)
- A "gross" hazard analysis that requires further study, often in the form of a logic diagram or table. Useful in the early stages of an accident investigation to support hypothesis development about issues and situations that led to the accident(s).
Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
- A technique to determine where failures have occurred in the process.
Fault Tree Analysis
- A Boolean logic diagram depicting the pathways within a system that can lead to a negative outcome or a failure.
Multilinear Event Sequencing (MES)
- An integrated approach to investigate and analyze a wide range of events, both desired and undesired, before or after they happen.
Report of Investigation
- Includes a cover page, title page, table of contents, executive summary, narrative (body), conclusions and recommendations
Measuring Health and Safety Performance
- To manage health and safety, measure it.
Elements of Effective Accountability
- Stakeholders need to know,
- Reporting is essential,
- And results are important.
