Using Data Mining to Predict Injuries:  A new model for injury prediction and prevention

Presentation Topic

Imagine it’s 2054 and as a safety professional you have the tools available to identify employees who are about to have injuries up to 36 hours in advance.  In addition to individuals identified, you receive information of the exact time, date, and location.   

Aside from the “free will” versus “determinism" argument and whether the future is set or whether free will can alter the future (which won’t be part of the discussion), Steve’s presentation will focus on:

  • Past and current studies using predictive analytics
  • What tools and leading indicators are available today to predict injuries
  • Barriers that exist in using this “technology”
  • Q & A

Presenter - Steve Thompson, ARM, COSS

For the past 20 years Steve has served in various risk and safety management positions focused on safety, ergonomics, wellness, and risk management.  Steve is the coauthor (with Dan Hopwood) of Workplace Safety: A Guide for Small and Midsized Companies (Wiley), and is coauthor of both safety and ergonomics chapters in Foundation for Optimal Productivity (DMEC), and Tools of the Trade (DMEC).  Earlier in his career, Steve served in the Air Force as a medic, and later worked as an Emergency Room Nurse.  He currently serves as President of Aspen Risk Management Group and ERGOhealthy.  He has been a Member of the ASSE San Diego Chapter since 1989.
