Incident and audit response
Investigations after an incident, and site walks before an audit.
After an incident
We investigate, talk to the people involved and work the root cause with a 5-why and an analysis tree. You get a written report in two business days.
The report covers what happened and in what order, why it happened, and what to change, with a name next to each fix.
Before an audit
Owner audit, prequalification review or an insurance loss-control visit coming up? We walk the site and the paperwork the way the auditor will, and hand you a list of gaps to close before they show up.
Ask why until it stops
Here's how a 5-why works on a sample incident. Tap "Ask why" to go one level deeper each time.
ExampleA laborer's hand was caught in a conveyor pinch point during cleanup.
- Why 1He reached in to clear spillage while the belt was running.
- Why 2Stopping the belt meant walking to a panel at the far end.
- Why 3There was no stop or pull cord within reach of the tail pulley.
- Why 4The cleanup task was never covered in the job hazard analysis.
- Root causeCleanup was treated as housekeeping, not as work on energized equipment, so it never got a lockout step.
