According to W. H. Heinrich, who developed the so-

called Domino Theory, 88% of all accidents are caused

by unsafe acts of people, 10% by unsafe actions and

2% by "acts of God.“

He proposed a "five-factor accident sequence" The

sequence of accident factors is as follows:

Ancestry and social environment

Worker fault

Unsafe act together with mechanical and physical

hazard

Accident

Damage of property or injury.

Heinrich suggested that removal of one of the factors

would prevent the accident and resultant injury.

This theory represents for the evolution of accident

causation.
