Create a mock incident investigation report which outlines the incident and the steps conducted. This report should demonstrate the legal requirements of an incident investigation.
Incident Description:
Kristy was instructed to repair siding on the building. After climbing scaffolding, Kristy began prep work on the building. Approximately 45 minutes into her shift she turned around to grab a tool and fell off side of scaffolding.
Background Info on Kristy:
Construction worker with 2-years’ experience at the same company but new to the job site and task at hand (3rd day on that specific task at that specific job site), working 1st shift from 5:00 am – 3:00 pm. Previously worked 8:00 am – 5:00 pm at a less hazardous job site.
Injuries:
Broken arm, fractured ribs, and multiple contusions
Kristy’s Statement
“Was removing old siding off wall. Turned around to grab a pair of snippers and lost my balance and fell. That’s all I remember. Next thing I know I’m in the hospital.”
Additional Information:
Ben supervises a crew of 12 employees and the primary job at hand is to repair siding on the 2nd level of a facility. He has been informed that the repairs need to be completed by the end of the day as the landscaping crew will be starting the next morning.
Ben is working on the scaffolding along with new employee, Kristy, since the crew is short-handed and Kristy does not have much experience working at heights and has commented that she has a slight fear of heights, but wants to learn as much as she can so she can be promoted into a supervisor position within the next year.
Randy is on the ground picking up debris from the repair site. Randy has been a part of this crew for the past 5 years and has a very negative attitude about how the project is managed and thinks he should be in charge. Randy has been a supervisor of crews in the past, but was recently demoted due to previous attendance issues which he claims is due to the type of work he has done for the past 20 years. Randy knows something about everything and everyone on the job site.
