Request for Why-Why Analysis Template
Can anyone share a template or presentation on the Why-Why analysis, which is key to accident investigation? I need to give training to our Senior Management.
Looking forward to your help and support.

Please review the corrected text below:
Plz correct yourself, it is not just for accident investigation; it is for any problem's root-cause analysis. You just go on asking 5 times "why this happened?" Many times, more than one, you will encounter the root cause by the end of the fifth WHY. Once the root cause is identified, eliminate it, which solves the problem.
Example of Why-Why Analysis
Why did this accident occur?
- Not wearing PPEs
Why were PPEs not worn?
- Stores do not keep adequate stock
Why are stores not keeping adequate stock?
- Not anticipating new joiners
and so on...

Dear Hansa,
I have a presentation on a copyrighted topic that I have sent to your email. Please review it and make modifications to suit your requirements.
Dear M Rama Krishna,
I have a question. Why is it always 5? Why can't it be less than this or more than this?
Thank you.

Thank you for not posting copyrighted material. But do you think it's okay to send it by email? Asking "why" three times is not a must; if you can get the answer within three "whys."
Determine The Root Cause: 5 Whys
Please see the 5 Whys PowerPoint .ppt training presentation - Attached.
In addition to 5 Whys, you can also use the means-end chain. I came across this tool in the 70s. Besides asking why we want something or why it happened, one has to ask what can be done to prevent it or make it happen. Choose the one that is within the scope of the department or the person.
Have a nice day.

Thank you for your inputs into the thread. I am sure that Ms. Hansa will not reproduce the presentation "as it is" for her use. My intention was only to help someone in need. However, thanks for the cautionary words.

Please find attached a PowerPoint presentation on Root Cause Analysis, which can be easily understood by providing a daily life example of a banana peel. I often use this example in training programs.
"The important message of this example is Corrective Action Changes as the root cause changes."
You can incorporate actual incidents from your company to enhance the training.
Hope this is useful.

Please find attached herewith a single slide PowerPoint presentation (PPT) which will clearly guide you about "5 Whys." It should contain the underlying causes possible for all the "whys" to help you straighten your process map to the root cause where the problem lies, leading to the effect you observed.
