The document summarizes Heinrich's Domino Theory of accident causation. The theory proposes that accidents result from a chain of five sequential factors or "dominoes" falling over: 1) Social environment and ancestry influence 2) faults of a person that lead to 3) unsafe acts/conditions which then cause 4) an accident and finally 5) an injury. While providing an early framework, the theory is limited as it views accidents as a simple linear sequence rather than recognizing their multifaceted nature. More modern theories emphasize that accidents typically develop through complex interactions of multiple factors over time.
