Scenario 4-1The performing arts (theatre, dance, music) do not always come to mind when hazardous workplaces are being discussed. However, performers at Canada's famed Shaw and Stratford festivals encounter many hazards and OH&S incidents can occur. Imagine a theatre with suspended overhead lights, trapdoors in the stage, on-stage sets that look real but are built of flimsy materials, narrow hallways and stairs, and actors engaged in fight scenes using realistic weapons. The same process of hazard recognition, risk assessment, and control must take place.
-What analytic technique is available to show why the defective repair occurred and contributed to the incident?

Question

The best choice in this scenario is D, fault tree analysis. Fault tree analysis is a method used to determine the root cause of a problem or incident by creating a logical diagram of events that led to the incident. In the case of the performing arts theater, fault tree analysis can help determine why a defective repair occurred and how it contributed to the incident. Safety sampling and audit programs may not be as effective in this case as they are more focused on identifying potential hazards before an incident occurs, rather than analyzing the cause of an incident that has already happened. Positive tree is not a recognized analytic technique.
