When analyse the above case, you will get a number of contributory causes... PPE non-usage is one among them... Or in other language you can say, its the unsafe act done by the person, one of the contributory reason... Hence again validating that non use of ppe can cause accident...
There is physical, system factors than the human error which I pointed out behind this case...

"5 WHY ", is a simple but powerful tool to use with any problem solving activity. It's a technique to help you get past the symptoms of a problem, and to find its root causes. Simply ask the question "why" up to five times. Of course, there's no magic in this number of questions. It may take six or it may take three. The important thing is that you use this most powerful of words to peel away the layers that envelope any problem.

Dear All,
This with respect to use of PPE.
use of PPE is one of the last method of risk control measure.
The hierarchy of risk control measures re:
1. ELIMINATION- Eliminate the risk if possible.
2. If elimination is not possible try substitution.
3.If substitution is not possible try engineering controls
4. if that is not possible try administrative controls like work permit system.
5. If that is not possible try PPE.

Dear All,
The example of bolt falling on the head of a person without a helmet causing an accident is not exactly correct in my view. The incident initially is the falling bolt. If the bolt did not fall - no accident. However, the impact of the bolt falling on head w/o helmet is great c/w falling on a helmeted head.
So all the helmet can do is reduce the gravity of the impact & it cannot prevent the bolt from falling. an unsafe act has caused the bolt to fall leading to other consequences when it hits an unhelmeted head.
