Accident prevention MORT analysis

MORT analysis. A detailed, comprehensive 1,500-item fault tree used primarily for mishap investigation. This valuable tool serves as a graphic guide for organizing and conducting an investigation and for writing the accident report. It may also be used as an appraisal or accident-prevention tool. 

The purpose of MORT analysis is to provide a systematic tool to aid in planning, organizing, and conducting an in-depth, comprehensive accident investigation (or inspection, audit, or appraisal) to identify those specific control factors and management system factors that are less than adequate and need to be corrected to prevent recurrence of the accident (or to prevent other undesired events).
