Analysis of Most Frequency Violated Procedures Accidents,

Abstract

Accidents in the U.S. Army vary widely across a number of dimensions. However, as is found to be the case in most organizations, about 80% of Army accidents are due to human error. This broad category, "human error," requires further analysis to specify further categories and thus pinpoint the most common types of error within certain tasks, jobs, or activities. A taxonomy constructed by the U.S. Army Safety Center provided the classification framework for this analysis.
