Forty UK construction workers lost their lives because of work-related harm in 2019-2020. That's on top of 81,000 people living with ill-health suffered at work. As its name suggests, the RIDDOR Text Analysis Tool is based on the accident reports submitted to HSE under the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations (RIDDOR) 2013. It uses natural language processing and machine learning to perform semantic searching on accident and incident textual data. It's available to view on the NaCTeM website (where there is also a helpful video). The tool is a big step forward. By training computers how to read text almost like a human, NaCTeM's experts have created a system that can complete in-depth analysis instantly. This will enable health and safety managers, contractors and HSE inspectors to extract pertinent safety-critical concepts and associations without the labour of trawling through thousands of pages of text.
