The overall test of relationship among the independent variables and groups defined by the dependent is based on the reduction in the likelihood values for a model which does not contain any independent variables and the model that contains the independent variables. This difference in likelihood follows a chi-square distribution, and is referred to as the model chi-square. The significance test for the final model chi-square (after the independent variables have been added) is our statistical evidence of the presence of a relationship between the dependent variable and the combination of the independent variables. In this study, a hazardous event such as accident has been analyzed using binary logistic regression. The presence of a relationship between the dependent variable and combination of independent variables is based on the statistical significance of the final chi-square model. The result of the best model shows that number of Injuries/Fatalities, number of Chains and operation mode gives the significant contribution in predicting hazardous event on floating offshore units.
