What does a bad day look like? Shark warning
Ah, to frolic in the ocean is a delightful pursuit, unless you encounter a shark warning. To be sure, a shark warning — whether it’s a warning by a nearby boat, an overhead whirr of a spotting helicopter, or shark warning flags suddenly appearing on the beach — is nothing to ignore. Particularly, if you are in the water and spot a number of people quickly swimming to shore and getting out, or hear a call from a nearby boat to get to safety. We are told to pay attention to shark warning signs: birds circling, splashing water, seals and dolphins very actively feeding as well as to be hyper-conscious that sharks feed at dusk, dawn, and at night.Founded in 1988, the TapRooT® Root Cause Analysis System solves hurdles every investigator faces.
TapRooT® is a systematic process to find and fix the root causes of audits/assessments, precursor incidents, and major accidents. Use TapRooT® to:- Collect, understand, and organize evidence about what happened. The TapRooT® tool, the SnapCharT® diagram, reduces investigator bias and makes the facts make sense without developing hypotheses.
- Identify all the Causal Factors (the human errors or equipment failures) that led to the problem – the starting point for root cause analysis.
- Use expert guidance to analyze human errors using the Human Performance Troubleshooting Guide and equipment failures using the Equifactor® Troubleshooting Tables.
- Analyze the real root causes of problems guided by the Root Cause Tree® Diagram and Dictionary.
- Develop effective fixes for problems using the Corrective Action Helper® Guide and Safeguard Analysis to stop repeat incidents or significantly reduce their consequences.
