TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Occupational accidents and objective risk on North Sea offshore installations JO - Safety science A1 - Rundmo, Torbjørn SP - 103 EP - 116 VL - 17 IS - 2 N2 - Objective risk among personnel working on offshore petroleum installations on the Norwegian Continental Shelf was calculated using data from a self-completion survey which had a response rate of 92% (N = 915). The study, conducted in Spring 1990, drew respondents from five companies and eight installations and provided details of respondents' accident experience. Results of the risk assessment are presented in respect of accident probability, accident consequences and exposure to specific hazards. The probability of an accident, the accident consequences and exposure to the specific hazards involved are taken into consideration in the assessment of risk. It is concluded that information collected in this way can be used as the basis for a valid assessment of objective risk.
