I learned that human error, unsafe working conditions, inadequate training, and exposure to hazardous materials are major contributors to workplace accidents. Addressing workplace bullying is crucial to prevent stress-related health issues like anxiety and depression. Comprehensive safety training, anti-bullying policies, and continuous support help maintain a healthy work environment and improve overall productivity.

I'm currently in AMS learning about maintenance and one of the key things I learned in my general mechanic classes is that there are around a dozen different reasons or accidents. The FAA refers to them as the dirty dozen. The twelve most common factors that contribute to accidents are as follows:

Lack of communication
Complacency
Lack of knowledge
Distractions
Lack of teamwork
Fatigue
Lack of resources
Pressure, whether that be internal or external
Lack of assertiveness
Stress
Lack of awareness
Norms, which means normal workplace practices which could be negative

As I stated in the know section, I know the most common causes of accidents and illnesses for the field in which I am going in to. I would most like to know what are the most common practices and procedures in place in major companies in order to limit these common causes to ensure the most safe environment possible

The key takeaway for me was that social bullying can be minor things such as exclusion from events or not saying good morning to someone when you address everyone else. I find that interesting because I think everyone has individuals that they don't like. These acts would occur against someone that you don't like. For example, I wouldn't invite somone to an event if I didn't like them, I also wouldn't address them in the morning if I didn't like them. I did not think that this could be a form of bullying, but I guess in today's society everyone will get offended and upset about something. I also learned about the major contributing factors to workplace accidents such as human errors and factors, inadequate knowledge and training, and inadequate tools equipment.

Work-related accidents and illnesses can result from physical, chemical, biological, psychosocial, organizational, human, and environmental factors such as unsafe working conditions, exposure to hazardous substances, workplace stress, and human error. To prevent and mitigate these issues, it is essential to conduct regular risk assessments, provide safety training, ensure the use of personal protective equipment (PPE), monitor employee health, and have robust emergency preparedness plans.
