Investigation of Incidents. (a) Pursuant to the Workers Compensation Act, Part 3, Division 10 governing Accident Reporting and Investigation, all accidents/incidents shall be jointly investigated by at least one worker representative and one employer representative. This will include motor vehicle incidents and incidents that did not involve an injury to a worker, or involved only minor injury not requiring medical treatment, but had the potential for causing serious injury to a worker. The designated worker representative shall be released from their regular duties to participate in the investigation. The Employer will reassign the work that would have otherwise been performed by the worker representative for the duration of the investigation. This may include replacement of the employee. Where the investigation is scheduled outside the worker representative's regular hours, they will be paid at the applicable rate of pay. A preliminary investigation will be completed within 48 hours and a preliminary and corrective action report will be posted and provided to the Committee. The full investigation will be completed within 30 days with the full investigation and corrective action report submitted on a mutually agreed accident/incident investigation form. Copies will be sent to the Workers' Compensation Board, Occupational Health and Safety Committee, each employer representative and each worker representative.
Investigation of Incidents. The Occupational Health and Safety Committee, as provided in Article 22.2, shall be notified of each incident or injury and shall investigate and report to the Union and Employer on the nature and cause of the incident or injury. In the event of a fatality, the Municipality shall immediately inform the staff representative of the nature and circumstances of the incident.
Investigation of Incidents. When a serious incident occurs the Head of Year will begin an investigation. A student may be placed for a short period of time in internal isolation whilst the investigation is conducted, and an Investigation Summary Form (Appendix 15) completed. Any investigation or decision on sanctions will be conducted fairly for all parties involved. Decisions on sanctions will be made based on the balance of probability rather than beyond all reasonable doubt. Students may receive different sanctions even though they are involved in the same incident. In order to be fair and transparent to all involved when undertaking an investigation, we will not involve parents in that investigation but will speak with them about any conclusions reached. We will only discuss sanctions with the parent/carer for whom that sanction applies. We aim to work in partnership with home to ensure that any issues are resolved as quickly as possible. • Malicious Allegations Where a student makes an allegation against a member of staff and that allegation is shown to have been deliberately invented or malicious, the school will discipline the student in accordance with this policy. Where a student makes an allegation of any kind (e.g., sexual violence or sexual harassment) against another student and that allegation is shown to have been deliberately invented or malicious, the school will discipline the student in accordance with this policy. In all cases where an allegation is determined to be unsubstantiated, unfounded, false or malicious, alongside appropriate sanctions, the school will consider whether the student who made the allegation is in need of help or support. If so, a referral to children’s social care may be appropriate. Please refer to our Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy for more information on responding to allegations of abuse against staff or other students.

Investigation of Incidents. After emergency response actions associated with a chemical incident are complete, EPA’s primary goals will be to determine whether the facility complied with relevant safety and environmental statutes and regulations; whether existing EPA (or delegated state) regulations and programs are adequate to address the safety issues raised by the incident; and whether action under sections 112(r)(1) or (9) or other action is necessary to prevent a recurrence or similar incidents from occurring elsewhere. CSB’s primary goal will be to determine the cause(s) or probable cause(s) of the incident. The CSB will use an “all cause” approach in discharging its investigatory duties, since all circumstances contributing to an incident (including those that may effectively be modified to improve safety) are of concern to the CSB. If a matter arises between EPA and CSB personnel at the incident that cannot be resolved quickly, the matter will be promptly referred to the appropriate personnel at the respective Agency’s headquarters for resolution.
