I'm developing an in house course for our employees on accident/incident investigation and was thinking back to a course I did years ago where delegates were given a scenario and a few pieces of information and asked what they thought were the root and immediate causes. They were then given further information and evidence and asked again what they thought. This went on being drip fed information and with each red hearing a different conclusion was reached until all the evidence was collected and they could come to a final assessment of all the facts.

I was wondering if anyone had something similar they could send me that I could use for our employees as a practical demonstration as to the importance of investigating all avenues and collecting all evidence for an investigation.

Any other interactive/group work type games would be appreciated. I've looked online but can't find much and thought I'd try and tap the knowledge of the IOSH membership!

Thanks very much in advance.

Not got one, but it sounds like a really good positive and engaging course, best of luck developing it and delivering it!

Bumping in the hope someone may have something. If not I'll have to try and develop something myself!

Probably of no help at all but the online course provided by IIAI do something similar to work your way back through the levels of causes?!

Being the skinflint I am I was hoping not to have to pay for anything and I don't have IIAI membership!

IIAI membership is £45 a year and you can do the online training free instead of £135. Their workbooks for the online training may be available online if that would be of any use?

When I did my Nat Cert many years ago, we were shown a video of an incident-someone borrows a floor cleaning machine and causes an accident and we then had to work through the scenario. It was like you said full of red herrings. You were meant to initially assume that the fault for the accident rested with the incompetent operator but you were finally led to the conclusion that the fundamental cause was a lack of management and control by the business. It was a very good introduction to the subject. Unfortunately it was so long ago that I cannot remember who made etc. Never the less you are definitely heading in the right direction with your training.

Hi AK et al,
That video was called 'No going back' with Cherie Lunghi as the Factory Inspector-very nice [oops better edit that out]
We used to use it for accident Investigation purposes and generally as it was very good. Well worth using
Check it out on Google under Cherie Lunghi's name.

Plot
This multiple award-winning film is about the impact and results of a serious workplace accident; it explores responsibility for safety and goes to the heart of safety awareness.

In the film management and staff at Brookdale Electronics are working flat out to fulfill a large order for a new Japanese client. Everyone's under pressure; corners are cut and established safety procedures ignored. The result: a serious accident that leaves a young office worker crippled for life.

The Factory Inspector's investigation reveals that no one person was entirely responsible. The errors were cumulative and collective. Everyone, including the victim herself, played their part in the tragedy. And everyone could have prevented the accident.
C a s t
Cherie Lunghi as Joy Lewis Factory Inspector
Kate Beckinsale as Tosca
Jason Flemyng as Sax
Jack Klaff as Managing Director
Peter Wight as Production Manager
regards
Mike

Thanks Mike, I'll have a trawl around and see what I can find! I also found some good bits and bobs here http://www2.worksafebc.c...urces.asp?ReportID=34413

We still show this video (we have a DVD of it) when we deliver IOSH MS course. Its a bit dated now and a bit 'un- PC' in places but it gets the message across and stimulates discussion. Incidentally we also show the videos 'Kate's Story' and footage of the Bradford City fire (both on You know where).

How the hell did you remeber that?
I am ashamed that I forgot Cheri Lunghi was in it!

Hi AK
There's no accounting for the stuff in my head-some of it useful.
Mind you, maybe Cherie Lunghi had lots to do with this memory [not forgetting Kate Beckinsale]. And it is unusual to come across such a good safety video/film
Regards
Mike
