ABSTRACT
Zhang, S. and Wang, J., 2015. Analysis of South Korea Sewol sunken ferry accident based on behavioral safety.
South Korea Sewol ferry accident was analyzed based on behavior-based accident causation “2-4” model. The direct behavioral causes of this tragedy were Captain Lee's absence on the bridge in the dangerous range of sailing and a sudden turn made by Park Han-kyul. The important cause of the accident for further expansion was Captain Lee's false command. He didn't get passengers ready for evacuation in the first time. Another important causes leading to the accident were the overloading of cargo and the lack of ballast water on board. The decisive causes of the accident were the defects about Chonghaejin Marine Company's safety management system and safety culture, such as the lack of training and safety investment. Measures should be taken to provide similar accidents from governments, supervision departments, marine companies and schools.
