Investigation
When any type of safety incident, accident, near-miss, risk or hazard is identified, it is important that the proper reporting procedures are followed in a timely manner. The size and scope of an investigation should be relative to the nature of the incident and its outcomes. A simple slip or trip that results in no injury or illness may require an informal discussion with the involved person/s. Incidents that resulted in more serious injury or illness, or those dangerous occurrences with severe potential outcomes need to be investigated in some detail
Why investigate incidents?
The main aim of investigating incidents is to:
- Identify the cause and therefore prevent similar incidents in the future;
- Identify any new hazards;
- Identify and choose appropriate hazard management controls;
- To inform the work group concerned the reasons for the accident and what remedial action has been undertaken; and
- To comply with legislation
Winning Safety have the personnel to conduct investigations across a range of sectors associated with health, safety and the reduction of risk in the workplace.
