Gregg Slintak (Director of Safety, Industrial Hygiene, and Fire Prevention at Consolidated Edison Company of New York) made this presentation at the 2016 CII Annual Conference in National Harbor, Maryland.

Workplace fatalities remain a persistent challenge, despite industry gains in preventing less-severe injuries. Robust post-incident analysis can minimize recurrences by identifying lessons learned, breaking through the fatality plateau will require more than post-incident investigation.

CII Research Team 321 – Using Precursor Analysis to Prevent Low-frequency High-impact Events, Including Fatalities – investigated the applicability of precursor analysis as a potential means to overcome the fatality plateau. Other industries have leveraged precursors to prevent adverse energy events, but these methodologies do not translate well, given the dynamic nature of construction activities. RT-321’s work addressed that barrier by developing a tool specifically developed for the construction industry. This tool can provide a new information stream to project leadership, enabling construction professionals of various education/experience levels to predict events before they occur.
