ULTRA Accident Investigation

The primary purpose is to discover the principle cause of the accident and report the accident.  The site supervisor or area supervisor will investigate all accidents as soon as possible after they occur.  The supervisor or person conducting the accident will take an impersonal fact finding attitude.

The accident reporting form (see attachment) should be used to document and report any accident to the company safety director.  The purpose of the accident investigation is corrective, and not a disciplinary action.

In addition to the above requirements, any additional requirements by our customer’s safety procedures must and will be followed.  The following guidelines are established for reporting hazardous conditions or an accident on site:
Immediately contact the site or area supervisor to report the hazard
or accident
The area or site supervisor will contact the company (customer)
person on call or emergency person on call and report the accident
or hazard
Follow the company’s established guidelines for dealing with an
emergency and following up with an accident report
Take all necessary steps to prevent further injury and manage the
situation
