The reporting of a near miss or accident is vitally important. This is to ensure that any suitable control measures are then reviewed or introduced to prevent recurrence. Failure to report a near miss or accident may result in a more serious incident occurring to someone else or an apparently minor injury becoming worse.

The aim of the investigation is to establish the immediate, underlying and root causes of the incident. This will help the company identify why the existing risk control measures failed and what improvements or additional measures are needed to prevent this from happening again.

This training course has been developed to provide managers/supervisors etc. with the necessary knowledge and awareness to be able to undertake an effective accident investigation.

The following modules will be covered during this course:
