necessary to learn from incidents and thus prevent them from happening again.
Learning from incidents or LFI is vital to achieving our goals: zero harm and zero
fatal victims. That is why we must report and investigate all incidents to find out
What happened?, How did it happen? and Why?, in this way we ensure to identify all
the factors that influenced, verify how effective the controls were, identify

That's why we ask you to actively support 'Learning From Incidents / LFI', report

Don't forget that reporting incidents is very important and how you should do it.
It will depend on the operation you are in.
In the modules associated with each operation, we will see which channels you should use.

An effect is a deviation from what is expected, either positive or negative.

Honestly, it is because when we face risk reactively or in


in an isolated form, this dominates us, we respond to unwanted events once they happen
instead of getting ahead of them. We spend time putting out fires, we are almost
experts in that, but it also has its costs on human life, on productivity

The good news is that we have the way to do it 'Operational Risk Management'

Remember that we are all risk managers, and it is our responsibility to be
assets in their management.
Risk management is divided into 4 layers:
CAPA 1: Risk Management of the operation, where the responsible parties are the Teams of
Senior leadership.
CAPA 2: Risk Management Derived from Problems, where the responsible parties are
Operations Managers.
CAPA 3: Work Risk Analysis, where the responsible parties are the Leaders of each one
from the teams.
CAPA 4: Continuous Individual Risk Assessment, where we are all responsible.
We will focus on this last layer that involves us all equally and is what we must
permanently implement in the workplaces.

Our goal is for everyone to stop and think before carrying out a task, in order to
execute it efficiently and without causing damage, doing the right job, in the
opportune moment and in the right way.
We will achieve this by planning our tasks. This means knowing what they are.
specifications on how we should carry out the work correctly, identifying its
hazards and associated control measures.
Added to this, we must follow a clear schedule of our tasks, which means
know where and when we must carry them out.
This way we will become a competent team, with a clear understanding of the risks and their
controls, counting on planned working methods and appropriate equipment for the
tasks, in a safe and productive work environment.
Each one of us can stop a job if it represents an uncontrolled risk.
We are all leaders in safety.
In addition, you must know and deeply understand all the risks associated with the
activities you are going to carry out, this is very important.

In Chilean law, there is Supreme Decree No. 40 which establishes that the employer
must inform its workers at the time of their hiring, or in
in case of starting activities that involve risks, about the risks involved in their work,
preventive measures and the correct working methods.
In case the activity to be performed involves specific risks, these will be communicated in
set with its preventive measures, and the correct working methods by area
responsible prior to the start of the activity.
It is very important that you are aware of all the risks associated with your tasks beforehand.
to start carrying them out, we call this DAS which stands for Right to Know and it is not only
a legal compliance, but rather a fundamental step that aligns with our
zero harm mentality.

Don't forget that there are risks associated with each of our operations, areas, and tasks.
No matter the pressure you have, your safety is the most important.

Everything we have seen in this module is directly related to the three principles of
our security, health and environment policy, SHE WAY. Its purpose is to
let's learn from the incidents, aiming to prevent them and ensure they never happen again.
