Presents the Health & Safety Commission proposals for a new legal duty on employers to investigate dangerous occurrences, ill health and injuries to be introduced in the Management of Health and Safety at Work (Amendment) Regulations 2001 or the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995. These would require the 'responsible person' identified in RIDDOR to permit safety and employee safety representatives to take part in the investigation, to keep a record of it, and to inform anyone who has carried out a risk assessment of the activity concerned of the results, and would empower HSE inspectors and local authority officers to direct how the investigation is carried out. Also gives details of responses to the HSC consultation.
