“…Several papers have investigated the root causes of accidents in order to estimate the percentage of accidents that could be prevented or mitigated by changes in design or the design process (Hale et al, 2007; Kinnersley and Roelen, 2007; Kirwan, 2007). Some authors have tried to present a coherent and systematic approach for considering possible safety problems and how to avoid them (Fadier and Ciccotelli, 1999; Kjellen, 2002). Others explored whether design processes that are successful in one industry can be transferred to other industries (Drogout et al, 2007).…”

A number of high profile product safety events and recalls have heightened public attention to the safety and security of the products that people consume and use. While product safety isn’t a new topic, the effect of the global supply chain in creating or exacerbating safety risks and vulnerabilities is both timely and relevant. In this essay we focus on how the field of operations management can provide fresh perspectives and insights in addressing the challenges of product safety and security in the global supply chain. We first examine the product safety issues and challenges that arise in five industries that are increasingly globalizing their supply chains: food, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, consumer products and automobiles. We describe four areas where operations management theory and methodologies can provide fresh insights and innovative solutions in addressing these problems; regulation and standards, product lifecycle management, traceability and recall management, and supplier relationships.

“…We note that there is an established literature stemming from a range of work in France on the need to moderate reductionist, decomposable approaches to human reliability -or as they sometimes term it, 'human factors of reliability' -with an understanding of organisational, management and process contexts which can introduce dependencies (Fadier 2008;Fadier and Ciccotelli 1999;Fadier and De la Garza 2006;Leplat 1994).…”

Human reliability analysis: A critique and review for managers

et al. 2011

In running our increasingly complex business systems, formal risk analyses and risk management techniques are becoming a more important part of a manager's tool-kit. Moreover, it is also becoming apparent that human behaviour is often a root or significant contributing cause of system failure. This latter observation is not novel; for more than 30 years it has been recognised that the role of human operations in safety critical systems is so important that they should be explicitly modelled as part of the risk assessment of plant operations. This has led to the development of a range of methods under the general heading of human reliability analysis (HRA) to account for the effects of human error in risk and reliability analysis. The modelling approaches used in HRA, however, tend to be focussed on easily describable sequential, generally low-level tasks, which are not the main source of systemic errors. Moreover, they focus on errors rather than the effects of all forms of human behaviour. In this paper we review and discuss HRA methodologies, arguing that there is a need for considerable further research and development before they meet the needs of modern risk and reliability analyses and are able to provide managers with the guidance they need to manage complex systems safely. We provide some suggestions for how work in this area should develop.

“…Industrial situations often highlight a considerable divergence between the foreseen theoretical reliability and the operational reliability observed in the field. The examination performed by Fadier and Ciccotelli [14] discovered that the majority of the research in the domains of design and innovation takes the form of practical experiments, with little theoretical work. This issue persists in the form of haphazard innovation of woodworking equipment.…”

Woodworking is among the most dangerous activities with manifold risks to occupational safety and health of operators. Most of these risks are associated with the design of woodworking equipment. In this regard, the identification of woodworking equipment hazards (WEHs) is essential for improving safety. However, collective the identification and assessment of WEHs is not yet attempted in the woodworking literature, especially in the context of a developing country whose woodworking sector is more exposed to these risks. To address this gap, this paper employs a double triangular fuzzy Delphi method (FDM) in conjunction with the fuzzy Best-Worst method (F-BWM). The FDM was employed to select relevant WEHs, which are collectively sourced from previous literature, while the F-BWM is used to rank the relevant WEHs. The findings of this paper show that the risks posed by lack of "kickback safeguards" are the most important, while the risks posed by inadequate "maintenance functions" are the least important. The proposed algorithmic framework of this paper can help managers, occupational safety and health professionals, and woodworking firms in developing countries like the Philippines to build the capability they need to address WEHs and, to some extent, improve safety practices in the woodworking industry.
