To determine the causal factors related to any incident or accident requires an investigation. The conduct of such investigations requires specialised forensic skills and knowledge and is therefore the responsibility of specialists. However, the success or failure of the investigation is critically dependent upon the actions of personnel involved throughout all the phases of the incident. This includes those who initially respond to an incident, those who participate in securing and protecting the scene upon arrival and all personnel involved in subsequent phases of the incident. Direct observation, recorded notes, sketches and photographs can all provide vital information in an investigation.
This learner resource will assist an individual to gain the skills and knowledge to work as a member of a team, and without direct supervision in some situations, to protect and preserve the scene of an accident of incident. |
