prevention to a national and even an international level, using solution databanks. These
initiatives have been supported by developments in legal requirements. To ensure the success of
these databanks, which potentially can become 'the state of the art of prevention', a classification
not only of production processes, but also of hazard generation and solutions needs to be applied
to the structure of this databank. These classifications provide the basis for a navigation system
by which a user of the databank is guided to preferred solutions. The principles for these
classifications have been partly worked out in projects conducted for the Ministry of Social
Affairs and Employment of the Netherlands (Swuste et al., 1997c), the European Commission
(Hale et al., 1994) and the construction industry.
