Organizational and operational human factors have a significant impact on accidents in the chemical industry. Chemical accidents occur in various operations due to multiple factors. Understanding the relationship between these factors and accidents is crucial for preventing recurring accidents and promoting sustainability. This study divided the chemical industry into five operations and used the HFACS method to analyze accident reports. The results showed that high-frequency accidents were caused by organizational processes and skill-based errors in different operations.
In the chemical industry, organizational and operational human factors significantly contribute to accidents. Chemical accidents occur in various operations of the industry due to a range of factors. Understanding the relationship between these factors and the accidents that happen is crucial in preventing similar accidents from happening repeatedly and promoting sustainability. Therefore, this study was divided into five operations: maintenance repair, process, loading unloading, storage, and shutdown startup of the chemical industry, to provide a more concrete, intuitive explanation of the interplay between causes and illustrate the routes to failure. The data were collected from 251 accident reports from various online data. The study was analyzed using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) method as a conceptual framework. Each level's frequency variables were obtained to define nominal and ordinal data. The chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were used in the difference analysis of data in the model. The results show that the high-frequency accidents caused under the HFACS framework were organizational processes in the process (63.73%), in the storage (70.58%), and in the shutdown startup (91.66%), and skill-based errors in the maintenance repair (81.81%) and in the loading unloading (66.03%). Furthermore, resource management, technological environment, and personal readiness were significantly correlated with the operations. Human factors have differences in different operations in the chemical industry.
