H. W. Heinrich was a pioneer of accident prevention and investigation in the 1930's. This second edition of Heinrich Revisited: Truisms or Myths analyzes the principles of Heinrich s safety premises, reviews their origins, and evaluates whether they are truisms or myths. Fred A. Manuele delves deeper in this edition to determine whether Heinrich s theories are valid and effective in today s safety practices and how eliminating myths can improve accident prevention systems. This new edition includes updated material to support Manuele's claims, and seven new chapters provide guidance on current thinking and risk management. These new chapters specifically address incident investigation, currently accepted premises, avoiding and reducing human error, ANSI/AIHA Z10-2012, prevention through design, and the socio-technical model.

Fred Manuele is a respected thought leader in safety whose many works have influenced the safety profession and inspired some of the profession s most prominent authors, leaders, speakers and educators.

 Topics 
<ul>
<li>Addressing serious injuries and fatalities: For decades, safety has emphasized achieving low incident rates without recognizing severity potential. Several chapters challenge this focus with the concept that reducing incident frequency does not ensure prevention of serious injuries and fatalities.</li> <li>Risk assessments: Every safety practitioner should understand that performing risk assessments is a proven method for identifying potential problems. Hazard identification and analyses and risk assessments are at the core of prevention through design.</li> <li>Prevention through design: The most effective, economical way to address hazards and risk is doing so early in the design process and taking action to reduce risks to an acceptable level.</li> <li>Acceptable risk: The practice of safety requires embracing the concept of acceptable risk as a goal.</li> <li>Occupational safety and health management systems: Employers should have processes in place for continual improvement to identify and evaluate hazards; identify and improve system deficiencies; and eliminate, reduce or control risks to an acceptable level.</li> </ul>
