10. INCIDENT REPORTING AND INVESTIGATION (MP:08)

HB policy is to report and document all accidents / incidents / hazards and near misses, in accordance with
procedure MP:08, on an Incident / Accident / Hazard Report Form (HB-HSEQ-F-027-B). All information
gathered can provide an important indicator of any emerging trends or particularly hazardous items. All
significant incidences must be fully investigated with the cause identified to enable suitable actions be put in
place to prevent similar reoccurrences.
All injuries must be reported to the Health & Safety Officer and First Aid Officer immediately at the time of
occurrence. This is very important for managing injuries and minimising the impact.
The Site Manager, on completion of the investigation, must sign off accidents / incidents / hazards and near
misses on the Incident / Accident / Hazard Report Form (HB-HSEQ-F-027-B).
HB has a legal duty to investigate the circumstances of every accident and incident reported which results in
injury to personnel.
