We investigate accidents, incidents, injuries and near misses in regard to workplace situations. The situations we investigate internally for organisations are intended to identify why the incident occurred and what needs to occur to prevent similar situations occurring in the future.
We can also assist in coordinating a company’s response to an investigation carried out by the regulator.
Investigative
In investigating incidents internally for organisations we aim to identify the factors that contributed to the incident and detail controls measures needed to prevent a recurrence at some later time. Our analysis identifies the range of factors that contributed to the incident; the type of factors we examine are :
Person factors - training, experience, activities, supervision, etc.
Equipment factors - suitability, condition, design, etc.
Environmental factors - weather, work conditions, temperature, lighting, etc.
Procedural factors - instructions, work practices, systems of work, etc.
We also train persons within organisation on how to investigate incidents objectively to reduce the possibility of similar incidents occurring again.
