Incident Investigations

Unfortunately, despite the best intentions and most careful precautions of employers, employees can still experience injuries on the job. Incidents and injuries cost time, money and effort. Therefore, when these incidents happen, it’s important to conduct an incident investigation to prevent the same event from occurring again.

Pinnacol's Safety Services team has created an Incident Investigation How-to Guide and Webinar as tools for employers to use when conducting incident investigations.

Our How-to Guide combines traditional investigative techniques with a systems view model to provide Colorado employers with workable investigation templates, simple analytical tools, and a safety oriented solutions tracking sheet that promotes interdepartmental collaboration.
