Basic Incident And Investigation - UK Certified

Course Description

The Basic Incident & Investigation Training – UK Certified is a foundational workplace safety program designed to equip learners with the knowledge and practical skills required to effectively investigate accidents, near misses, and unsafe events in the workplace.

Incidents and near misses often indicate underlying hazards or system failures. This course helps learners understand how to systematically identify what happened, why it happened, and how to prevent similar occurrences in the future.

Learners will explore incident reporting procedures, evidence gathering techniques, interviewing witnesses, analysing contributing factors, and preparing professional investigation reports. The course emphasises real workplace scenarios and practical tools that can be applied immediately in any industry.

Delivered fully online with flexible learning, this qualification is suitable for employees, supervisors, and safety personnel responsible for maintaining safe work environments and supporting compliance with health and safety standards.
