Answer to Question 1

The report format can follow the investigation checklist unless the company uses a standard accident report form. Regardless of the format, supervisors should remember several rules when writing accident reports. Prominent among these are the following:
 Be brief and stick to the facts.
 Be objective and impartial.
 Be comprehensive; leave out no facts.
 State clearly what employees and what equipment were involved.
 List any procedures, processes, or precautions that were not being observed at the time of the accident.
 List causal factors and any contributing factors.
 Make brief, clear, concise recommendations for corrective measures.

Answer to Question 2

Supervisors are interested primarily in the type of training that is appropriate for their employees. Generally speaking, such training should cover the following subjects:
 Orientation to the organization's safety policy and principles
 General housekeeping procedures
 Emergency procedures
 Proper use of applicable equipment
 Orientation to hazardous materials present in the company and proper handling of these materials
The method of instruction used can range from simple one-on-one conversations between supervisor and employee to discussion groups to formal instruction. Instruction may be provided directly by supervisors or by individuals introduced by supervisors.
