About Accident Investigation Training

The online Accident Investigation training course is designed for anyone who must investigate accidents within the workplace or the organisation.

The key purpose of this course is to train and equip the learners with suitable knowledge, skills and competence to act proficiently to avoid the reoccurrence of the incident under investigation, as well as unexpected accidents.

Why Is Accident Investigation Important?

Every year hundreds and thousands of people are killed or injured at work. Over 40 million working days are lost each year due to work-related accidents, incidents and illnesses.

In any business or an organisation, things do not always go as planned. Employers must be prepared to deal with unexpected events to minimise their consequences.

Learning the lessons and acting accordingly may decrease or even prevent accidents in the future. Therefore, investigating accidents and incidents and having an appropriate process in place help employers and their staff to identify, control and mitigate the consequences of both seen and unforeseen accidents.
