Knowledge of risk for better safety

Robert Stephenson writes that all the accidents, the harms caused and the means used to repair the damage should be recorded for the benefit of the younger Members of Profession.

   A faithful account of those accidents and the damage containment was really more valuable than the description of successful work.

   Hence it is imperative that  knowledge  of risks will definitely help  to attain better safety.

   But it should be borne in mind, that still gaps remain, because

i) there are some industries where information is not freely shared and

ii) there are always  new applications  of old technology  that  render  the available information less useful.
