What are Master Bowties?
A Master Bowtie is a bowtie analysis that functions as a template or standardized model for visualizing and controlling common risks across multiple business locations or work sites. Rather than having to develop their own unique risk bowties from scratch, site managers can subscribe to Master Bowties as a starting point and tweak as necessary to account for the site-specific needs, local or regional compliance requirements, or local language or practice variations. Knowledge, processes and controls for managing common risks are stored and distributed from one common bowtie – the Master Bowtie.
