Issues from the NTSB investigation of a 2023 railroad accident are used to discuss the voluntary party system. The system is designed to encourage cooperative efforts in an investigation, which does not always work.In the party system, an organization or an individual with relevant expertise or information is invited to participate directly in an NTSB investigation. These parties are required to follow basic rules. They are expected to provide the NTSB information or expertise that helps the investigation and limit discussing details with the media and others not involved in the investigation.In the NTSB investigation of a 2023 rail accident involving a Norfolk Southern train in Ohio, Norfolk Southern was a designated party. Late in the investigation, Norfolk Southern submitted information that the NTSB rejected because of how and when it was submitted. Based on statements in the final report and in the public docket, Norfolk Southern did not operate properly as a party to the investigation. They conducted an independent investigation and held information that should have been given to the NTSB.Should inappropriately late submissions be included in an NTSB investigation? The NTSB did not state if this late submission had critical information. Greg Feith and John Goglia favor analyzing all information to determine whether it helps the investigation.Related documents are available at the Flight Safety Detectives website.

Despite initial plans to use one provider for both curriculums, the board's choice means there will now be a split between the district's health and sex education programs. HealthSmart will be utilized for the health curriculum, while Choosing the Best will remain the sex education curriculum, at least for now. During the discussion, there was some confusion among board members regarding the timeline and the possibility of having no sex education curriculum for a year. However, district staff confirmed that Choosing the Best, which has been in place for over 20 years, will continue to be in place. The controversy surrounding the proposed sex education curriculum, also provided by HealthSmart, has focused on concerns about promoting abstinence, addressing gender identity, and textbook images. Some board members expressed their preference for using the latest version of Choosing the Best, citing positive outcomes such as lower rates of sexually transmitted diseases and teen pregnancy in the county. Others are eager to begin the review process for a new sex education curriculum.

What can we learn about Human Risk from industries, like aviation, where the consequences of errors are matters of life & death.That's a question my guest this time, Andrew Blackie, is more than qualified to answer. He's an independent Safety and Human Factors consultant at Abris Consulting Ltd (http://www.abris.co.uk/). Abris takes aviation safety investigation techniques and applies them to help build operational excellence in the wider safety critical community. Andrew was a Senior Inspector (Operations) at the UK Air Accidents Investigation Branch conducting almost 50 major field investigations, numerous minor investigations and acting as the United Kingdom state representative on investigations conducted by foreign states.With 20 years of aviation experience, Andrew has commercially operated types as varied as the DC-3, the Lockheed Electra and the Citation II for a Formula 1 racing team. He joined the AAIB from DHL Air where he had been a Captain and CRMi on the Boeing 757.Andrew has a Masters degree in "Safety and Accident Investigation" and is accredited by the European Association for Aviation Psychology as a Human Factors Specialist.So super well qualified! In our discussion, we explore some fo the principles used in Aviation and how they can be applied in other scenarios. Plus, learn why recent incidents like this (https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/airport-hangar-foam-covered-discharge-los-angeles-lax-delta-a9427606.html) are far more severe than they might look.During our discussion, Andrew referenced a research paper by Clewley & Nixon which you'll find here: https://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/bitstream/handle/1826/14680/Understanding_pilot_response_to_flight_safety-2019.pdf?sequence=4You can follow Andrew on Twitter at https://twitter.com/BlackieAndrew.
Too often employers think of accident investigation as simply reporting a claim to their workers’ compensation carrier. There is much more to accident investigation – most importantly there is the opportunity to change an organization to prevent future accidents from occurring again. This podcast focuses on an accident review process, that when implemented properly will identify corrective actions an organization can take to decrease the potential for employee injury.

You know this podcast is platform is dedicated to you, the safety professionals. Everything that we do, everything that we focus on is dedicated to you and the companies that keep us safe and keep us coming home to our families and friends from the bottom of our Mars. Thank you very much. Now we’re going to be doing like little quick snippets because we know that you’re very busy and this particular episode we’re going to be talking a little bit about accident investigations one-on-one. So let’s get told, because we have no time to waste. [00:44] "] We don’t. You guys are busy out there. Now I want to make sure you understand this is brought to you by those wonderful people at. Safeopedia. I’m telling you, if you got to save for Safeopedia.com and you say, Nah, I’ve got to figure out what to do with the PPE, I guarantee you they have the answers. So go out to Safeway. [inaudible] dot com and that’s where this particular podcast is located as well. But anyway, they got the answers for you. I’ll tell you that much. And they are passionate about safety as a, as you can imagine, their website’s great enough about safe Apulia. I could keep on talking and talking and talking, but before we get going, you know, we gotta do tailgate talk number one. We never start a podcast without a couple of tailgate talks. And what’s interesting, I just draw from Safeopedia and then I’ve, I’ve, I’ve always wondered, now this is interesting because I’ve got 30 plus years of industrial experience. [01:33]"] I’ve taken the company public, I’ve done a lot of things and, and, and this Q and a section within safest PD is pretty cool. So I was, I was rooting around, looking around and, and then I found a, uh, a particular, uh, topic that is pretty interesting. Do workers need different respirations during a respirators during the summer months and, and, and I get RTI, I’m thinking to myself, okay, if it’s winter and I’ve got a respirator and, and I’m working around some a hazardous area, okay that’s fine. But then when it’s summertime, do I need to get something different? And I think in this particular article it gets right down to, uh, it’s hard to do that, right? It’s hard to find a different respirator that is really applicable to that same condition that you’re working in. But they did focus on, and this was brought to you by those wonderful people are presented by Honeywell in industrial safety and in sort of bottom line, if you have to have a respirator in the summer and knowing full well that uh, uh, you know, it’s, it’s hot, it’s humid, it’s sticky, whatever. [02:37] They just recommend they recommend by the, uh, providing or getting something that’s a little lighter, which makes sense. I mean, you don’t want to start hauling around a big old respirator in a hot summer months...
