Heinrich first proposed the causal linkage theory of accidents to clarify the causes of casualties and the relationship between them. According to this theory, the accident of casualty is not an isolated event, although the injury may happen suddenly at a certain moment, it is the result of a series of events
Heinrich wanted to describe the occurrence and development of industrial injury accidents as a chain of events with a certain causal relationship, that is:
(1) Casualties occur as a result of accidents.
(2) The occurrence of the accident is due to: ①people's unsafe behavior；②the unsafe state of the object.
(3) The unsafe behavior of people or the unsafe state of things is caused by people's shortcomings.
(4) People's shortcomings are caused by bad environment, or by congenital genetic factors.
