55 Hawcroft Consulting International 55

56 Majority of accidents are related to Slip & Fall, Material Handling and Majority of accidents takes place during day shift on Tuesdays 50% Of accidents are sprains / strains due to the slips and falls. Suggestion: Focus Tuesdays on housekeeping and access to and from work areas this will ensure at least 40% reduction in accidents. 56

77 BLINDNESS TO RISK CATASTROPHIC EVENT FINDINGS 77 Hawcroft Consulting International

78 TEXAS CITY REFINERY DISASTER On March 23, 2005, afireandexplosion occurred at BP's Texas City Refinery in Texas City, Texas, killing 15 workers and injuring more than 170 others. HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

79 TEXAS CITY REFINERY DISASTER THE PRINCIPAL FINDING : Was that BP Management had not distinguished between occupational safety (i.e. slips-trips-and-falls, driving safety, etc.) Vs process / systems safety (i.e. design for safety, hazard analysis, material verification, equipment maintenance, process upset reporting, etc.). HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

80 DEEPWATER HORIZON DISASTER The Deepwater Horizon drilling rig explosion occurred on April 20, 2010 in the Gulf of Mexico. The explosion killed 11 workers and injured 17 others and resulted in one of the USA s worst environmental disasters. HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

81 Hawcroft Consulting International 81

82 Hawcroft Consulting International 82

83 Hawcroft Consulting International 83

84 DEEPWATER HORIZON DISASTER BP boss Tony Hayward said: Safety is a core value of the oil and natural gas industry. We have a strong safety performance record, and we continue to improve upon it. According to data from the Mineral Management Service (MMS), the overall safety and environmental performance on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) has shown steady improvement over the past decade....recordable lost workday incident rates fell from 3.39 percent in 1996 to 0.64 percent in 2008 a reduction of more than 80 percent. Westall noted in her letter that "all eight BP-operated Gulf of Mexico production facilities" received safety awards from MMS in 2009." HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

85 DEEPWATER HORIZON DISASTER Fortune's investigation shows Perhaps the most crucial culprit: an emphasis on personal safety (such as reducing slips and falls) rather than process / systems safety (avoiding a deadly explosion). Consider this: BP had strict t guidelines barring employees from carrying a cup of coffee without a lid -- but no standard procedure for how to conduct a "negative-pressure test" HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

86 MASSEY UPPER BIG BRANCH The Upper Big Branch Mine disaster occurred on April 5, 2010 about 1,000 feet (300 m) underground d at Massey Energy's Upper Big Branch longwall operation at Montcoal in Raleigh County West Virginia. Twentynine out of thirty-one miners at the site were killed. HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

87 MASSEY UPPER BIG BRANCH Massey CEO stated Safety has always been of paramount timportance at tm Massey and cited various statistics the amount of time lost to accidents at Massey has bested the industry average for 17 of the last 19 years. Massey s non fatal days lost record has shown consistent t improvement and was better than the industry average. HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL

88 MASSEY UPPER BIG BRANCH Governor s Independent Investigation Panel Upper Big Branch Mine Disaster 19 May 2011 Conclusion : The April explosion was not something that happened out of the blue, an event that could have been anticipated or prevented. It was, to the contrary, a completely predictable result for a company that ignored basic safety standards and put too much faith in its own mythology HAWCROFT CONSULTING INTERNATIONAL
