The Capacity Model
This innovative approach to safety focuses not only on implementing controls that prevent incidents, but also the controls that mitigate incidents.
What is The Capacity Model?
There was an unexpected or uncontrolled release of energy that could have reasonably resulted in a STKYa.
What is a STKY Event?
Stuff that's hot or cold.
What is temperature (energy)?
Planning your work in advance to make sure you have everything you need.
What is a look ahead?
Do you have all the safety, material, tools, information? typically 3/6 weeks look ahead
You must have a ____ in place for high hazard work, or any live work & gear/equipment energization
What is a MOP
A tool to equip workers to recognize sources of energy to determine the controls needed.
What is the Energy/STKY wheel?
There was an unexpected or uncontrolled release of energy that resulted in a life-altering, life-threatening, or life-ending event.
What is a STKY actual (SKTYa)?
Stuff that twists, turns, or pounds.
What is Mechanical (energy)?
All employees must have a _____ & ____ done prior to using lifts, forklift, or other types of equipment
What is an inspection and a practical?
You must report these as soon as they are discovered / occur.
What is an incident?
Recognizing a situation could be STKY, but corrective action or intervention stopped the event
What is Good Catch?
There was an unexpected or uncontrolled release of energy, but there were adequate controls in place, so no one sustain life-altering, life-threatening, or life-ending injuries.
What is STKY success (SKTYs)?
Stuff that's living.
What is biological (energy)?
The things that trigger an unwanted event
What is Cause?
This concept gives every employee not only the right, but also the responsibility, to speak up if they believe an activity or condition is unsafe.
What is stop work responsibility?
The two types of controls described by the Capacity Model?
What is Preventative and Mitigative?
There was an unexpected or uncontrolled release of energy, where there were not adequate controls in place, but luckily no one sustained life-altering, life-threatening, or life-ending injuries.
What is STKY potential (STKYp)?
Stuff that's stressed.
What is pressure?
Acts, Objects, or Systems designed to prevent an unwanted event
What is Preventive Controls?
Company policy requires this for each field employee prior to work starting.
What is a PSP?
An unexpected or uncontrolled release of energy that results in a STKYa, STKYp, or STKYs.
What is a STKY event?
The first question you should ask when building Capacity for a STKY event
What is -- Is this enough or do you need more?
This tool helps increase the number of hazards identified on a jobsite from 45% to 75%.
What is the Energy Wheel / STKY Energy based approach?
Because it's not IF a failure occurs, it's _____.
What is WHEN?
This is required each week to be completed by every employee
What is a safety meeting?
