Fly-outs are identified as the most happening accidents in lathe machining. This study aims at determining the
causal factors leading to fly-out accidents during lathe machining operations and also determine the probability of
occurrence of fly-out accident. Fault tree analysis (FTA) was used to identify risk factors for any field of work. Boolean
algebra equations were used to analyze the probability of fault occurrence. Monte Carlo simulation was carried out using
Open FTA software and the output of 1000 iterations was compared with the output of Boolean algebra. Safety intervention
alternatives were evaluated by comparative analysis of before and after implementation of safety measures.
