Incident Investigation Training

Sometimes, even with best intentions towards health and safety in your workplace, incidents will occur.

Incidents can

  • interrupt the normal flow of work
  •  can have an adverse effect on worker morale
  • increase your Workers Compensation premiums
  • effect client perception of your business
  • injure your staff
  • increase operating costs

When an incident occurs, an investigation should be carried out to determine the casual factors involved and what actions are required to ensure the incident doesn’t occur again.
