skos:definition "In the context of the reporting and 'analysis' of 'events', an 'event' is any <br/>
occurrence unintended by the 'operator', including operating error, equipment <br/>'failure' or other mishap, and deliberate action on the part of others, the <br/>consequences or potential consequences of which are not negligible from the <br/>point of view of 'protection' or 'safety.'<br/>
<b>!</b> As <br/>
with <br/>
'INES', the terminology related to the reporting and 'analysis' of 'events'<br/>
is not always consistent with the terminology used in 'safety standards', and <br/>
great care should be taken to avoid confusion. In particular, the definition of <br/>'event' given above is identical in essence to the 'safety standards' definition (1) <br/>of 'accident'. This difference derives from the fact that 'event' reporting and <br/>'analysis' is concerned directly with the question of whether an 'event' that could <br/>develop into an 'accident' with significant consequences actually does so; terms <br/>such as 'accident' are used only to describe the end result, and therefore other <br/>terms are needed to describe the earlier stages.<br/>See 'initiating event' and' initiating event: postulated initiating event'.<br/>
