Total Loss Control

Risks and Losses due to Insecurity

CONCEPT OF RISK AND LOSS: The probability that a danger (imminent cause of loss), existing in a given activity during a defined period, causes an incident with consequences that can be estimated

TOTAL LOSS CONTROL: Total Loss Control is a set of management management tools, whose fundamental principle is that preventive management should prioritize control over the ultimate causes of damage or basic causes and should not prioritize action on the results, the effects generated or the immediate causes.

GUIDELINES FOR THE PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF RISKS: In 1994 it was estimated that 100 million workers suffered injuries in the world per year, and in 1995 this figure rises to 120 million, and 200,000 deaths occur each year due to work accidents; This high burden of morbidity and mortality is one of the factors that most influences the health situation of the world population.

IS THE RISK CONTROL PROGRAM A NECESSITY IN THE
COMPANY? There is no doubt that there are many reasons behind an effective operational risk control program. Once we've talked about them for a few minutes, I think we will all agree that each of those reasons is very valuable.

Investigation of Accidents in the Company

DEFINITION OF WORK ACCIDENT ACCORDING TO THE ILO. ILO documents express the need for member countries to proceed with a definition of work accident, recommending that it should affect accidents suffered during working hours at or near the workplace, or in any other place. place where the worker would not have been found if it were not due to his employment, whatever the cause of the accident.

Methodology for analyzing the causal components of work accidents: The precision of the information obtained in each accident investigation and its reliability greatly exceed any other when it comes to analyzing the causes that have generated the series of events and circumstances that finally have materialized in an accident at work.

Statistical safety indices: Statistical safety indices lower the annual direct costs of a company.

Risk Control in the Company

Implementation of an effective system of control of operational risk in the company: Many times a manager or the upper management of a company wants or needs to implement an effective system of control of injuries and / or damages in the company, to avoid losses, waste and resources that are out of budget, that affect the normal development of the company's service or productive activities and generally do not know how, or what type of advisers to turn to.

FUNDAMENTAL ADVANTAGES OF RISK / SAFETY PREVENTION
INDUSTRIAL: Control of occupational injuries and illnesses to workers, Lower insurance and compensation costs, Lower staff turnover due to absences from work or medical leave, Involvement, leadership, image

PERSONALIZED RISK / SAFETY PREVENTION PROGRAM
INDUSTRIAL: The personalized program is a schedule or programming of periodic activities that each member of the company must carry out in order to show their involvement or commitment to control operational risk.

BASIC ACTIVITIES OF THE PROGRAM AND STATISTICS: Monthly analysis meeting: This meeting aims to analyze month by month the management and progress of the personalized program to correct, analysis of accidents and / or losses, control compliance, Safety inspections: It is an operational activity that is carried out in a systematic and permanent way, carried out by supervision or Management, in order to detect, analyze and control the risks incorporated into the equipment, material and the environment that may affect the operation of production processes, compromising the results.

Systems or Models of Total Control of Losses due to Insecurity.

Economic analysis of safety: The economic analysis of safety is carried out in three interrelated directions: The calculation of the cost of deficiencies in occupational safety, Profitability criteria in decision-making regarding occupational safety., The calculation of the cost of preventive measures

ZERO ACCIDENT MODEL: The Zero Accident Model should be understood as a dynamic process of constant improvement, which requires the use of information and control systems that allow, in a systematic way, to monitor those risk factors that, in a given period, have gained importance due to his aggressiveness.

Model of functional analysis of operability (AFO) or HAZOP: In reality a risk analysis as such, should be quantitative, assigning the numerical values ​​of the probability of the expected damage and the magnitude of the consequences.

5S method: The 5S movement (housekeeping) takes its name from five Japanese words that begin with s: seiri, seiton, seiso, seiketsu and shitsuke. starting from the very low cost that its start-up implies, the savings in costs and resources, the reduction of accidents, the increase in staff motivation,
