“…The first exponent is the Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) [23], with the aim to quantify the failure probability of human and technical systems. The Event Tree Analysis (ETA) [23] is applied to assess domino effects caused by fire in gas industry, offshore installations, LNG tank storage, and process industries [105][106][107][108], and it is also used for human reliability assessment as part of THERP (Technique for Human Error Rate Prediction) [109], based also on event-tree approach for evaluating human errors and behavior. This method is applied in the analysis of the Tokai-Mura uranium reprocessing plant accident [110].…”

It is important to evaluate the risks in industrial parks and their processes due to the consequences of major accidents and especially the domino effect. Scientific works present a wide possibility of models to deal with these situations. In this work, based on the information extracted from the scientific literature, six groups of risk methodologies are defined, analyzed, and characterized with methods that cover the standards, preventive, probabilistic, traditional, modern, and dynamic evaluation that are applied or could be used in industrial parks. It also tries to achieve the objective of determining which are more appropriate if the possible situations and causes that can produce an accident are taken into account, identifying and evaluating them with characteristics of simultaneity and immediacy, determining the probability of an accident occurring with sufficient advance in time to avoid it under the use of a working operational procedure. There is no definitive methodology, and it is necessary that they complement each other, but considering the proposed objective, the integrated application of traditional methodologies together with the management of safety barriers, the dynamic evaluation of risks, and the inclusion of machine learning systems could fulfill the proposed objective.

“…Castiglia and Giardina [13] implemented Fuzzy HEART to determine operators' errors in hydrogen refueling stations and results of this method have been compared with the results of the Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM). Castiglia, et al [3] suggested an approach with using the fuzzy HEART to compute the probability of medical personnel error. THERP is also used to determine the fuzzy interval of the error probabilities in the event-tree.…”

“…HEART has been successfully extended to a wide range of industries such as railway transportation, aviation, health services and nuclear energy in recent years [2]. The HEART assumes that the probability of human error occurrence may be revised based on the presence and strength of EPCs related to the process [3]. At the design phase, it can prevent potential human errors or reduce the effects of these errors with additional controls.…”

Human Error Assessment and Reduction Technique (HEART) is a practical and powerful approach to prioritize errors related to human actions, based on probabilities. HEART can determine error producing conditions (EPCs) which cause human errors for different processes including main duties (MDs) and sub-duties (SDs). HEART can be applied quickly for any process where human reliability is important. In this study, HEART and advanced version of Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (AV-DEMATEL) integration proposed by Can and Delice in 2018 was performed for evaluating human related errors in steam boiler working process. In this way, the interactions between MDs, SDs and EPCs in a steam boiler working process were considered to compute process error probability (PEP). Additionally, the applicability of the proposed approach by Can and Delice (2018) was demonstrated again.

“…The HEART technique assumes that any predicted reliability of task performance may be modified according to the presence of the identified EPCs [11]. Next is to identify the conditions that resulted in an error (Error Producing Condition, EPCs) are shown in the form of scenarios that negatively affect human performance [12].…”

Abstract-Accident mainly caused by two factors that is, unsafe action and unsafe condition (Suma'mur:1981). Unsafe action was an act of unsafe done by operator while unsafe condition is the influence of a work environment where having two potentials to causing danger (hazard). Work accident occurred in X Company mainly caused by operator's fault in implementing activity (human error).The purpose of this research is to analyze the mistake by operators resulting in the accident. The research commenced a preliminary, literature study and collecting data whether it is primary and secondary.Processing was conducted qualitatively using Systematic Human Error Reduction and Prediction (SHERPA) to know error by operators of the critical that can cause of the accident. Next, quantitatively using Human Error assessment Reduction Technique (HEART) to see how big Human Error Probability (HEP) from their own -operator. The result of qualitative analysis by SHERPA obtained some activity has a probability ordinal who is critical that can cause of the accident .Based on the assessment obtained from the quantitative HEP from their own operator. After analysis human error, then continued to the Job Safety Analysis (JSA) to know danger of work that is undertaken.The results of the analysis suggest that there is an effort to prevent and to tackle accident is curative and rehabilitative treatments to reduce crash work.
