NEBOSH HSE Introduction to Incident Investigation
Introduction
NEBOSH has collaborated on the development of this specialist qualification with the British Health and Safety Executive (HSE). HSE inspectors have noted that incident investigations were generally very poor. The collaboration, therefore, combines the advanced technical expertise of the HSE with NEBOSH’s
ability to deliver strong vocational qualifications.
The qualification is aimed at managers, supervisors, SHE Champions, union representatives and aspiring
health and safety practitioners.
On completion of the qualification, candidates will be able to:
• carry out a solo accident investigation for noncomplex accidents and incidents including:
> gathering of evidence
> analysis of that evidence
• produce an action plan; and
• contribute to team incident investigations for large-scale incidents.
• Positively impact the safety culture in your organisation
Content
The one-day NEBOSH HSE Introduction to Incident Investigation covers the following topics:
– Moral, legal and financial arguments for investigations
– Human and organisational factors that can contribute to an incident
– The process for investigating incidents
– Positive interview strategies and the barriers to successful interviews
Training Methodology
This instructor led training is delivered using presentations, guided sessions of practical exercises and group work.
You will have the opportunity to interact with our experienced facilitator who will bring professional and research expertise into their teaching.
Assessment
A practical assessment is completed at the end of the course. You will be provided with a pack of evidence and shown a video of three witness interviews. You will be asked to review the evidence, evaluate each interview and produce an action plan that will help prevent a recurrence of an incident.
Certification
Learners are required to complete all parts of the assessment to achieve a Pass and receive a certificate from NEBOSH.
