Incident Cause Analysis Method (ICAM)

Description: High quality safety investigations that consistently identify factors to prevent reoccurrence are vitally important to the sustainability of any organisation and to maintaining employee, customer and shareholder confidence in safety.

ICAM is the Incident Cause Analysis Method, an industrial safety initiative that draws on the work of the eminent organisational psychologist and human error expert Professor James Reason. ICAM provided a highly practical and structured method in which to conduct systemic safety investigations. Safety Wise Solutions offers a 2 day Lead Safety Investigation ICAM course covering:

  • Data gathering methods with a particular focus on witness interviewing.
  • An understanding of human error in the context of organisational systems.
  • An understanding of “just culture” and the importance of a “systems” approach to investigation.
  • Competence in applying the Reason model of organisational accidents to safety investigations.
  • Confidence in interpreting, analysing and organising the data to present to management or the appropriate authorities.

 

To date, ICAM has been used in the investigation of incidents and accidents in the aviation, rail, road, mining, and petroleum sectors.  Its successful use in a number of different countries (including Australia, Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Peru, South Africa), work domains and cultural settings indicates that it migrates readily as an investigation tool to a range of national and industrial contexts.  Organisations that currently use ICAM as a standard safety investigation method include BHP-Billiton, BlueScope Steel, Brambles, Pacific National, Connex, Air New Zealand, OneSteel, Oz Minerals, Ergon Energy, Alinta, Dyno Nobel, DP World, Thales and Iluka.

 

Course participants will receive practical tools to support their investigations using ICAM, including:

  • Incident Investigator’s Reference Guide
  • Pocket Investigation Guide
  • Trainee Workbook
  • ICAM support CD containing additional investigation resource material
