Incident Investigation Procedure

PURPOSE

This incident investigation procedure provides an approach to determine initiating events, contributing
events, root cause, and contributing causes. The investigation must identify appropriate recommendations
that address the problems and identify root causes. These may include, but are not limited to, engineering
controls, personal protective equipment, and or training for affected employees. The intent of this procedure
is to help prevent and/or mitigate similar incidents and accidents in the future.

POLICY

All safety incidents, including work-related injuries, accidents, regulatory violations, and near misses, will be
investigated to determine the root causes. Recommendations will be developed and implemented to
prevent recurrence of the accident/incident. (A near miss is a condition or an incident where injury or
property damage could have occurred.)

employee training.

Employees

practices.

2. Do not disturb area, but control area to allow for investigation.

3. Participate in the incident investigation.

INVESTIGATION PROCEDURES

All incidents are to be investigated in a timely manner to determine the root cause(s) and contributing
factors involved. The extent of the investigation will be dependent upon the severity or potential severity
of the incidents. Site supervisors are responsible for performing an initial investigation immediately upon
finding out about the incident to determine the root cause(s) of the incident. Management will be
contacted as needed to assist in the completion of the investigation. The purpose of the investigation is
not to fix or find blame, but to identify the root cause and determine preventative measures than can help
to prevent future accidents/incidents.
