Introduction: Avoid major accidents

One of the reasons why major accidents occur is the transport of risk from one phase to the next. This can cause inherent vulnerabilities in facilities. The film focuses on how human, organizational and technical factors from design and project to operation can affect the risk of major accidents and how we use involvement and interaction across phases to identify and manage residual risk
