Analysis of a Historical Accident in a Spanish Coal Mine
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This is an interesting paper that tries to analyse the great accident occurred in a Spanish coal mine in 1975, using two well-known alternatives: 1) the method from the Spanish Instituto Nacional de Seguridad y Salud en el Trabajo (INSST), and 2) The Feyer and Williamson method.
In my opinion is very interesting the comparative between the two methods. There are several studies where is performed an analysis of an accident by some other methods. However, the analysis from two methods and their comparative is not usual.
Although the paper is interesting, I have some concerns that should be solved before possible publication.
- Please improve the accident method's description used in the study.
- Literature review is weak. Please add references about the two methods in order the readers can consult more details of them.
- Please appropriately address limitations, and future directions of research.
- The manuscript needs editing in English language. It has serious language mistakes that undermine the quality of the paper.
