Discussion Questions
1. In your opinion, how important is having a comprehensive corporate safety policy and goals?
2. “The only hazard analysis technique I’m going to use is human error analysis,” said one student. “Why do you say that?” asked her classmate. “Because human error is what’s really behind every construction accident,” replied the first student. Do you agree with the first student that human error is ultimately the cause in every construction accident? What might some other causes be? Could these causes be attributed at any level to human error?
