Abstract :
The authors describe an application program, known as E FATALS, which was developed to facilitate analysis of the Mine Safety and Health Administration database of electrical fatalities in mining. E FATALS in a menu-driven and user-friendly program than can be executed on DOS-based personal computers. The advantages of using E FATALS for performing safety analyses are stated, and some examples of such usage are given.<>
