Domino theory in accident sequences

We have five factors arranged in a relay that are

represented in cutting dominoes

Reasons

a) Social Environment
b) Fault of person
c) Unsafe condition
d) The accident
e) Injury
Pieces A, B and C represent the causes but E and D represent the results
If we move pieces B&C the relay will be cut off

Prevent accidents

 The person was injured when the accident occurred

 The accident occurs as a result of unsafe condition
 And un safe conditions as a result of personal foul
 personal foul can be derived from the environment and social environment

Reasoning

The direct causes of accidents are unsafe act and unsafe condition
