Study Notes
Domain 2 Management System
- Domain 2 represents 13.34% of the total content.
Management Theories
-
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: All human beings are driven by unsatisfied needs. Lower-level needs must be satisfied before higher-level needs can motivate.
- Physiological needs (e.g., breathing, food, water): Once met, these needs no longer motivate.
- Safety needs (e.g., security, family): Once met, these needs no longer motivate.
- Love/belonging needs (e.g., friendship, family): Once met, these needs no longer motivate.
- Esteem needs (e.g., confidence, achievement): Once met, these needs no longer motivate.
- Self-actualization needs (e.g., creativity, problem-solving): These are the highest-level needs.
-
McGregor's Theory X and Theory Y:
- Theory X: Employees are primarily motivated 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, and physical working conditions. These factors cause dissatisfaction if not present, but do not motivate if they are.
- Motivational factors: Achievement, advancement, recognition, and responsibility. These factors directly motivate employees.
Management Styles
- Autocratic: Leader makes all decisions unilaterally.
- Directive Democrat: Leader allows subordinates to participate in the decision-making process, but closely supervises employees.
- Directive Autocrat: Leader makes decisions unilaterally and also closely supervises employees.
- Permissive Democrat: Leader allows employees to participate in the decision-making process and gives latitude in carrying out the work.
- Permissive Autocrat: Leader makes decisions unilaterally but gives employees considerable latitude in carrying out the work.
Accident Causation and Investigation Techniques
-
Domino Theory (Heinrich, 1932):
- Accidents are a result of a sequence of factors, beginning with a basic cause.
- Each subsequent factor depends on the one preceding it.
-
3 Es controls: Engineering, Education, Enforcement
-
These controls help reduce accidents
- Engineering controls: design of equipment or processes to eliminate hazards
- Education controls: training or awareness programs that teach safe work practices
- Enforcement controls: enforcing rules and regulations, and ensuring compliance with safe procedures
Accident/Incident Theory (Petersen)
- Overview of accident/incident theories, including the factors of Overload, Ergonomic traps, Human error, and System failure leading to accidents. These theories and factors help understand and address the causes of accidents
Epidemiological Theory
- Deals with the causal relationship between environmental factors and disease in industrial settings, primarily concerned with industrial hygiene.
- Includes considerations like predisposing characteristics (e.g., susceptibility of individuals and environmental factors) and situational characteristics (e.g., risk assessment, peer pressure, supervisors' attitudes).
Systems Theory
- An interdisciplinary theory about complex systems. In industrial settings, this helps understand the impact of interactions between different parts and resources of an organization.
- Includes considerations like man (human element, most valuable and most flexible), machine (hardware), and surroundings (environment).
Energy Release Theory (William Haddon)
- This theory highlights the importance of energy buildup and transfer in potential accidents. Techniques for reducing accidents include methods for preventing energy buildup, reducing initial energy, controlling energy release, and separating energy from people or objects.
Behavior Theory (BBS)
- Focuses on positive behavior modification; a multistage process resulting in improved safety by analyzing antecedents, behaviors, and consequences.
Modern Causation Model
- A framework for understanding accidents caused by multiple factors; specifically looks at operating errors, system defects, and safety program defects.
Accident Investigation Techniques
- Key principles for investigating accidents include the importance of problem-solving techniques based on the scientific method, and including observations, developing hypotheses, testing hypotheses, and the formulation of hypotheses.
- Interviewing witnesses and reviewing documentation are essential parts of the process.
Measuring Health and Safety Performance
- Measurement is essential to manage health and safety effectively.
Elements of Effective Accountability
- Describes the importance of accurate data and reporting regarding workplace injuries and illnesses. Establishing standards and accurately recording data are critical.
Employee Involvement
- Emphasizes the importance of worker participation in safety programs.
Reporting Hazards
- Includes the importance of reports describing hazards, proper procedures, and the supervisor's responsibility.
Health and Safety Training
- Outlines five principles for training effectiveness and identifies different training types, including orientation, JSA, SOPs, and hazard recognition.
Engineering Economics
- The study of economic concepts used in engineering design and decision-making. Topics include interest calculations, future value of money, series compound amount factor, sinking fund factor, and capital recovery factor, as well as return on investments.
