abstract="A conceptual model for practical investigation of occupational accidents within industry was presented in 1981. The model has served as a theoretical framework for research into safety management tools including methods for accident investigation, safety audits and risk analysis and computerized safety information systems. The original model is presented and the subsequent theoretical and applied research is reviewed. The significance of the model to the field of occupational accident research in general and to safety practice is discussed. It is concluded that all aspects of the original model have not survived the test of time. The model and the subsequent research has contributed to a converging trend as regards accident theories and models. The contribution from the model mainly lies in an improved understanding of the accident process and of the deviation concept as a common element in many theories and models of accidents.<p />",
