When you need workplace accident investigation
- A serious workplace accident or injury has occurred
- A near-miss reveals a systemic risk you need to understand
- Repeat incidents suggest deeper organisational factors
- You want to learn from an event — not just document it
- Authorities are involved and you need clarity on what happened
Our investigation approach
We combine document review, structured interviews, and field understanding to build a clear picture of what happened and why. Our method focuses on systemic contributing factors — not individual blame.
- Scope and learning goals — we agree on what the investigation should achieve
- Evidence collection — documents, site conditions, timelines, and context
- Interviews — structured, blame-free conversations with people involved
- Analysis — identifying contributing factors, decision points, and root causes
- Recommendations — practical, prioritised actions with owners and deadlines
- Leadership briefing — presenting findings and supporting implementation (optional)
What you receive
- Investigation report with timeline and contributing factors
- Root cause analysis (systemic, not person-blame)
- Prioritised recommendations (quick wins + structural improvements)
- Optional: leadership briefing and implementation sparring
- Optional: authority communication support
