MORT User's Manual: For use with the Management Oversight and Risk Tree analytical logic diagram. Revision 3

摘要

This report contains the User's Manual for MORT (Management Oversight and Risk Tree), a logic diagram in the form of a ''work sheet'' that illustrates a long series of interrelated questions. MORT is a comprehensive analytical procedure that provides a disciplined method for determining the causes and contributing factors of major accidents. Alternatively, it serves as a tool to evaluate the quality of an existing system. While similar in many respects to fault tree analysis, MORT is more generalized and presents over 1500 specific elements of an ideal ''universal'' management program for optimizing environment, safety and health, and other programs. This User's Manual is intended to be used with the MORT diagram dated February 1992.
