This document outlines the steps for properly investigating and documenting a workplace accident: 1) Initial notification involves informing the accident investigator and eliminating hazards at the scene. 2) Investigating the scene includes documenting observations, taking witness statements, and determining the accident sequence. 3) Accident analysis identifies the root causes through techniques like fishbone diagrams and the 5 whys. 4) Risks are then prioritized and prevention methods like new PPE requirements are implemented. 5) Final documentation such as OSHA forms is completed to evaluate the effectiveness of the prevention methods.
