“…[5,13], and although mainly a security issue, it impacts safety. Although FRAM is mainly used in maritime, aviation and health care operations [126], the method has been applied to analyses in industrial settings [127,128]. We identified an exploratory exercise that applied FRAM to manage OHS in complex and unpredictable manufacturing systems, although in a low automation environment [129].…”

With the introduction of Industry 4.0, occupational health and safety finds itself confronted with new types of hazards. Many Industry 4.0 innovations involve increased machine intelligence. These properties make socio-technical work in Industry 4.0 applications inherently more complex. At the same time, system failure can become more opaque to its users. This paper reviews and assesses safety analysis methods as the breakdown of interaction coupling in socio-technical systems on the one hand, and the degree of failure tractability on the other hand; the latter being used as a proxy for complexity. Previous literature confirms that traditional health and safety risk assessment methods are unable or are ‘ill-equipped’ to deal with these system properties. This paper studies the need to introduce new paradigms and safety methods related to complexity thinking with theories borrowed from the study of complex adaptive systems, all to assess the arena of abruptly changing hazards introduced by Industry 4.0. At the same time, this review makes clear that there is no one-solution-fits-all method. Occupational health and safety (OHS) covers many different hazard types and will need a combination of old, new and yet-to-be-developed safety assessment methods.

“…The specific combinations of probability and impact that lead to a risk being rated as "high," "moderate," or "low" importance are usually set by the organization [21]. The use of the risk matrix as a hazard management tool is a significant issue for the industry due to (i) documented pitfalls and (ii) attention to adverse outcomes [24]. Personnel that is involved in risk identification activities may include project manager, project team members, risk management team, stakeholders, risk management experts, and customers.…”

Manufacturing Risk Identification in the Steel Industry

et al. 2020

The steel manufacturing industry is an inseparable part of the nuclear power plant construction project. This industry is a business full of dynamics, risks, and challenges. The implementation of risk management becomes an obligation that must be executed in managing this very complex project. In general, risk management in manufacturing includes steps to understand and identify potential problems that may occur, evaluate, monitor, and handle risks. The main risk management objectives are to prevent or minimize adverse effects due to unforeseen events through risk aversion or preparation of contingency plans related to those risks. This paper describes the identification of risk factors and assessments using the Boston Matrix. The results of the analysis show that unrealistic schedules, skill not appropriate, not available equipment, transportation barriers to the workshop, fluctuations in steel material prices, wrong specifications from owner, incorrect interpretation of specifications, misinterpretation of drawings, incorrect volume, material storage, wrong cutting, incorrect installation, and wrong order are factors with moderate and high risk.

“…The first part of the template included questions on demographic information from workers and the second part contained open questions so that the workers could describe their daily work in their own words. Different FRAM publications were used to prepare these questions, which included guidelines or examples of questions for collecting data (Albery et al, 2016;Clay-Williams et al, 2015;Hollnagel et al, 2014;Pickup et al, 2017;Studic, 2015).…”
