Dear all, I am looking for the analysis of past accidents occurred due to process safety leading and lagging indicators. Therefore, I need the statistics regarding this. Kindly help me in this regard.
Dear Muhammad Yasir Shamim, the data you are looking for is available in companies where production is ongoing on a daily basis. Please visit any production company and request for accident record. They will gladly provide you with past historical data. A good example of companies where you can visit include: bottling companies, oil and gas companies, cement companies etc. Thank you.
Dear Muhammad Yasir Shamim, Search & refer different case-studies available in the published literature or with the process industries of your interest. For specific problems, please do visit and study the relevant process industries of your interest for the past historical data and request for the accident record, as suggested by Mr. Modestus Okwu . All the best ! Regards, Ratnakar Chimote
if you want to know numbers and facts from Europe you can get information under http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php/Accidents_at_work_statistics
I found this link by using the search term "Europe safety at work accident statistics" in the ecosia search engine. If you are looking for statistics from other countries and regions of the world I would recommend to change eErope against the countries you are looking for.
Accidents at work is not necessarily what Muhammad is looking for. Many of these are personal injuries. Process safety incidents are events caused by abnormalities in the process, e.g. loss of primary containment or run away reaction. Personal injuries may og may not be involved.
Muhammed refer to leading and lagging indicators. For refineries and chemical plants the CCPS have defined such indicators, and there has been some discussion of American Chemistry Council of publishing industry wide trends. Companies generally don't share values of leading and lacking indicators publicly, although there are exceptions. One is Dow Chemical.
Thank you for your suggestion Dr. Niels Jensen. I quite agree with you. I am glad to know that Dow Chemical, an American multinational chemical corporation, with headquartered in Midland, Michigan, USA can share such vital information. Muhammad Yasir Shamim, please take note.
This type of data should have control units of occupational health and safety in your country. You can also try to get to the reports of international units.
