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 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.
