Do this before an accident investigation!
Another accident investigation training video, the third in the Accident Investigation Theory and Practice series. In this accident investigation training video, I give the viewer some simple tips that will hopefully help their first accident investigation go a little more smoothly. Even if you're an experienced investigator, these simple things can help make a difficult situation a little easier. Workplace accident investigations are already a difficult business, and without some organization, they can get a lot worse. I'll discuss who should be part of the investigation team, who else you need to call, and what you may want to bring with you. Simply put, these are some things you need to do before an investigation.
