Verify and Determine the root cause

  • You can use the simple Ishikawa principle to determine a potential root cause as a brain storming tool with the colleagues or the 5 Why process

  • Which root cause analysis will you use?

  • 5 Why Analysis (click the green + button to complete)
  • What is the problem you are going to root cause analyse

  • Why?

  • Why?

  • Why?

  • Why?

  • Why?

  • As determined by the 5Why above, what are the Immediate/Direct Causes (circumstances that immediately precede the accident)

  • As determined by the 5Why above, what is the Basic/Root Cause for the accident?

  • What was the Person/ Human Factor Root cause?

  • What is the job/ system factor of the root cause

Define and implement Corrective Actions (e.g what actions can be taken to rectify the root casues identified in section 4)

  • Include a Actions and assign a SMART objective

Verify Permanent Corrections (PCs) for Problem

  • Can the issue be recreated by removing one or more of the results identified in section 5?

  • Can the problem be corrected again by reinstating the results identified above?

Prevent Recurrence

  • Has the problem has reoccurred since implementation of all actions.

  • The root cause analysis should be reviewed and additional prevenatative actions implemented

  • Does a risk assessment exist for this task?

  • Has the risk assessment been reviewed?

  • The risk assessment must be reviewed before closing this investigation
