Zero Accidents - Eduardo L García - Bog

The Total Preventive Safety or TPS introduced in this book, based on the development script of Sensei Koichi Kimura, sets out a clear and scalable method of participation of ALL workers in the management of safety at work. It is developed done through total participation and the Japanese thinking of continuous improvement or Kaizen, although, oriented to the Western way of thinking. TPS is based on the methods of Factory Management and Occupational Health and Safety development of Japanese companies pioneering the development of total participation systems such as TQM, TPM and TPS. Although now, many of these developments are being known and collected, perhaps erroneously, under the term "Lean Manufacturing / Management". The target of TPS is ZERO ACCIDENTS and ZERO ACCIDENT PRODUCTION BREAKDOWNSThe means used by TPS, to achieve the main "ZERO" goal, is to guide the whole company towards that common goal, teaching all workers to identify, for themselves, the potential dangers and control the causes of accidents and, as a result avoiding autonomously through Kaizen. This manual can also be used as a script for the development of total participation under ISO-45001 (OSHA'S-180001 update) and underpins its development on many of the methods of the Japan Institute of Japan Occupational Health and Safety (JNIOSH) and the Japan Industrial Safety and Health Association (JISHA).
