This one day course is presented in conjunction with an ex-Workcover prosecuting lawyer and is designed to give participants a greater understanding of the steps involved with both internal and external accident investigations. Participants will analyse real-life accident scenarios and practice Immediate Action Drills (IAD's) on hypothetical accidents. It looks at both reactive and (more importantly) pro-active approaches to incident management.
