In the accident chain, the situation is the first step that leads to an accident. Therefore it is the circumstance leading to the accident ( Option A)

  • The accident chain model is used to study how and why accidents take place. This is important to prevent them from occurring in the future
  • The most common format to study accidents is the five-step accident chain model. This separates an accident into; the situation, the unsafe habit, the unsafe action, the accident itself, and the consequence
  • The situation is the initializing step, such as waking up late. The habit acts as a risk factor, for example, not looking both ways while crossing the road. The action is crossing the road itself. The accident is the crash that occurs, while the consequence includes any injury that the person may face
  • This model enables us to detect the causative factors that lead to the accident
