Talk:Herbert William Heinrich

Comment
Just dropped by to read up on Heinrich's law. But why is there more information on what someone theoretically thinks is wrong with Heinrich's research than about Heinrich and his own work? Very strange ratio of information. This article should really be revised to be more balanced and useful204.15.96.67 (talk) 01:44, 10 July 2014.

H. W. Heinrich did important work which is still cited today and deserves a better entry than this which is all I can do with current resources, sorry.MartinY 22:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

I have added what information and references I have been able to find. The Safety Management book is from my library here at home. JenBusick 02:52, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

A red link to the socalled "heinrich's law" also called "heinrich's principle" or "Heinrich's triangle" or "Heinrich's accident triangle" or "Heinrich ratio" or "Heinrich’s Pyramid". this law say that for one accident with major injury, there are 29 accident with minor injury und 300 no injury accident. It's from the 1930s.Tomi (talk) 19:28, 24 June 2008 (UTC) (sorry for my english) It is not 300 no accidents it is 300 unsafe behaviours that lead to 29 minor incidents and for every 29 incidents one major. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.141.139.172 (talk) 03:30, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

This theory is not totally accurate…
Is not right to believe that by fixing minor incidents major incidents will be controlled. 216.164.255.126 (talk) 00:49, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
