An Interactive 2-Day Training Course
Incident Reporting and Investigation
Guidance to Preventing Recurrence and Helping to Achieve Safer Workplaces
Course Overview
Despite our best efforts, accidents and incidents do occur. These unplanned and undesired events can adversely affect work operations. They may result in work-related injuries, occupational ill-health, property damage, spills, and fires, all of which lead to business losses. Therefore, it is essential that all accidents and incidents be reported and investigated to identify the causes and prevent future recurrence.
