| Abstract |
MIMIX (Method for Investigating Management Impact to Causes and Consequences of Specific Hazards) is a new method for the identification of deficiencies in managerial means and practices used for maintaining and improving plant safety. The report includes guidelines for carrying out a MIMIX analysis, together with practical experiences, case studies and an example of the preparation of incident scenarios. The report also summarizes the first findings of a programme entitled "An Overall Knowledge-Based Methodology for Hazard Identification" (TOMHID), funded by the STEP (Science and Technology for Environmental Protection) European research programme. |
