Analysis of events for lessons learned is a basic tenet of safety management.
Various analytical approaches can identify, in events and families of events,
features such as risk of injury or fatality, safety significance, number
of barriers to failure, comparison to industry averages, and cost-benefit
of corrective actions.
Like many other industrial organizations, the Department of Energy requires
lessons-learned identification, evaluation, sharing, and incorporation
into projects, programs, or operations. This reflects the need to effectively
communicate acquired knowledge and to ensure that beneficial information
is factored into planning, work processes, and activities. |
