    Safety Management Systems

    • Safety is important for humanitarian, legal, and cost reasons
    • An accident is an unexpected event resulting in injury, loss, or damage
    • A hazard is a condition or set of circumstances potentially causing an incident, injury, illness, or loss
    • Direct costs are expenses directly related to an accident (medical, lost time)
    • Indirect costs are hidden costs associated with the accident (replacement workers, time lost)
    • ANSI Z10 is a voluntary consensus standard for occupational safety and health
    • Heinrich's Incident Theories propose a 4:1 ratio of direct-to-indirect costs
    • ANSI is the American National Standards Institute
    • AIHA is the American Industrial Hygiene Association
    • Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) is a cycle for improvement in safety systems
