Workplace Fatalities: Failure to Predict: A New Safety Discussion on Fatality and Serious Event Reduction

Are you tired of organizations boasting about their low injury rates and incident counts while fatal and serious events continue to occur? It's time to delve into the complexity and contradiction behind these so-called safety accomplishments. Introducing "Workplace Fatalities: Failure to Predict" - a groundbreaking book by Todd Conklin that uncovers the hidden risks and dangers lurking beneath the surface. This book is not just another safety discussion, it's a wake-up call for organizations to address the underlying issues that lead to fatalities and serious accidents.

While many organizations focus on reducing injury rates, they fail to acknowledge the alarming truth - managing injuries and incidents does not prevent fatalities. Numerous industries, including construction and energy, have experienced stable fatality rates over the years, even amidst declining injury counts. In fact, lowering non-serious incident rates may actually increase the risk of accidents and fatalities. For example, shipping accidents tripled while injury counts were halved in the shipping industry. Similarly, construction workers lost their lives during the years with the lowest injury counts. Even in aviation, airlines with fewer incidents had higher passenger mortality rates.

So, why do these fatalities occur? Is it simply a matter of non-compliance with safety regulations? "Workplace Fatalities: Failure to Predict" unveils the true underlying causes of these tragic events. It challenges the notion that personal protective equipment and adherence to rules are the sole culprits. If your organization prides itself on being safe, this book is an essential read to understand why fatal and serious events still persist.
