Accident Causation Models

The Sequence of Events Model

This is a simple, linear cause and effect model where accidents are seen as the natural culmination of a series of events or circumstances that occur in a specific and recognizable order. A chain often represents the model with a weak link or a series of falling dominos. This model prevents accidents by fixing or eliminating the weak link, removing a domino, or placing a barrier between two dominos to interrupt the events.
