Study Notes
Domain 2 Management System
- Domain 2 accounts for 13.34% of the CSP certification.
Management Theories
-
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: Human motivation is driven by unsatisfied needs. Lower-level needs must be met before higher-level needs become motivators. Basic needs like physiological, safety, and belonging needs must be met before employees can be motivated by higher-level needs like esteem and self-actualization.
-
Motivational Theories (X, Y): McGregor's Theory X assumes employees are inherently unmotivated and need extrinsic motivation (e.g., monetary rewards). Theory Y posits employees are motivated intrinsically by esteem and self-actualization needs, and can be self-directed.
-
Herzberg's Two-Factor Theory: Factors influencing job satisfaction and dissatisfaction are different. Hygiene factors (salary, supervision) prevent dissatisfaction; motivators (achievement, recognition) create satisfaction.
-
Contingency Theory: No single best way to manage; the most effective approach depends on the specific situation and context.
-
Systems Theory: A highly interdisciplinary approach to understanding systems in nature, society, and science. Systems comprise interdependent parts. Understanding these interactions is key to understanding how a system operates.
-
Chaos Theory: The field of study in mathematics, physics, and philosophy studying the behavior of dynamical systems that are highly sensitive to initial conditions.
Management Styles
- Autocratic: Leader/manager unilaterally makes all decisions
- Directive Democrat: Leader participates in decisions, but closely supervises employee actions.
- Permissive Democrat: Leader/manager involves employees in decisions. Allows employees some latitude to carry out tasks.
- Permissive Autocrat: Leader/manager makes decisions unilaterally but allows latitude in task execution
Accident Causation and Investigation Techniques
-
Domino Theory (Heinrich): A scientific approach, positing that accidents are a result of a sequence of events leading to injury, where each factor is dependent on the preceding factor.
-
3 Es: Engineering controls (design adjustments), education/training programs for employees, and enforcement procedures, act as controls to prevent accidents.
-
Human Factors Theory: Emphasizes that accidents are typically rooted in human error; in contrast, system problems are not always apparent.
-
Incident/Accident Theory (Petersen): Describes the overload (pressure, fatigue, motivation, drug, alcohol, worry) that initiates human errors, which may result in system failure.
-
Modern Causation Model: Demonstrates how various safety, operational, and administrative failures can interact to create an accident.
-
Epidemiological Theory: Focuses on industrial hygiene and the causal link between environmental factors and disease.
-
Systems Theory: Examines how interdependent systems can lead to accidents.
Measurement of Health and Safety Performance
- Measuring health and safety performance is key to managing risk.
Elements of an Effective Health and Safety Program
- Benefits: Reduces the extent and severity of work-related injuries, improves employee morale and productivity, and reduces workers' compensation costs.
- Characteristics: Assigns responsibility clearly to management, supervisors, and employees. Establishes a plan or program for regular inspections to identify and control hazards.
Employee Involvement
- Employee involvement is key to successful health and safety programs, as employees are most familiar with the risks and hazards in their workplace.
Report of Investigation Components
- Typically includes a cover page, title page, table of contents, executive summary, narrative body (details about the incident), conclusions and recommendations.
Safety Program Auditing
- A structured assessment of health and safety processes to determine efficacy.
Engineering Economics
- Simple Interest: Interest is calculated only on the principal amount.
- Compound Interest: Interest is calculated on the principal plus accumulated interest.
- Future Value: Value of an asset at a future date, based on a growth rate.
- Loan Balance: Remaining amount owed on a loan after some period.
