Completing Reports

When an incident has occurred, ensure that procedures contained in the emergency action plan are followed, that all required emergency response contacts have been made, that all injuries have been attended to and all process and equipment has been secured.

Do not allow any person to tamper with or adjust equipment, process or incident site, so all evidence will be protected.

Requesting a statement from all personnel involved when a serious incident has occurred may be necessary.  (This may be accomplished by having people complete an incident report form).

Rope off or barricade the site of a serious incident and proceed with taking photographs, measurements, drawings, etc. of the incident scene as required.

An investigator must never endanger their own life/safety or that of any other persons.
