    Disastrous Decisions: The Human and Organisational Causes of the Gulf of Mexico Blowout

    Published: May 2012


    Disastrous Decisions: The Human and Organisational Causes of the Gulf of Mexico Blowout is an essential reference for all work, health and safety professionals, directors, officers, managers, safety regulators and engineers.

    Written by noted expert Professor Andrew Hopkins, this book takes the reader into the realm of human and organisational factors that contributed to the Deepwater Horizon disaster in 2010. This event resulted in the loss of 11 lives in the explosions and fire, the sinking of the rig and untold damage to the environment and to the livelihood of Gulf residents.

    It is important to know what people did, but even more important to know why they did it, so this book attempts to “get inside the heads” of decision-makers and understand how they themselves understood the situations they were in. It also seeks to discover what it was in their organisational environment that encouraged them to think and act as they did.

    Hopkins provides a sophisticated analysis of the accident that first identifies a series of critical defences that failed and then goes on to explain why they failed.

    The 1990’s witnessed the end of job creation in the sectors that historically purchased disability insurance. A new era has begun: roughly 1 million contract workers have emerged. They are found in almost all industries and occupations. As diverse as the general public – there is an equal number of men and women, many highly educated, others not, with wide-ranging earnings levels and all in need of disability and other healthcare benefits.

    • Traditional products and coverage for specialized markets
    • Insuring “temps” and “independent contractors”
    • Critical illness insurance
    • Private health and dental insurance
    • Checklists, charts and other planning tools

    Jacqueline is a benefits consultant through her company, Health Assured Financial Group, and has over 30 years of experience in health benefits. She is a noted speaker and author on seniors’ issues and benefits planning for an aging clientele.

    She is a Chartered Life Underwriter, a Registered Health Underwriter, and an Elder Planning Counselor, and is on the faculty of Seneca College where she educates on a range of aging issues including both health and social aspects of aging.

    She is the author of the Long Term Care Insurance training module produced by ADVOCIS under their Registered Health Underwriter (RHU) Designation Program.
