Description

The first of many spillover and special topic e-groups is at
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/RCSOTP_02/
The spillover groups are 1) for extra file space, 2) for extra allowed databases, and 3) for special purposes, e.g.,A BART accident is being analyzed at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RCSOTP_07_BART_death/


These e-groups have one purpose: to serve as a clearinghouse for all information related to how root cause analysis including root cause failure analysis, root cause organizational learning, etc. are actually performed by end users and how effective the various methods are in preventing future similar incidents and consequences.

Member rooticians can address actual practices that they have personally used or practices that they have observed.

Information about what has worked is preferred, but information about what has not worked will also be found useful.

Ask questions. Ask for help and information. Post your experience and opinions.

There is more to this site than just messages. Please use and add to FILES, PHOTOS, BOOKMARKS (links), DATABASE (tables), POLLS, AND CALENDAR.

Inaction as a causal factor?
Is the story linked below an example of inaction as a causal factor (of a law suit)? If this is not an example, do you have a better one?   Take care,   Bill
