Incident Reporting & Investigation for Site Preparation
The Incident Reporting & Investigation workflow provides site preparation contractors with a structured process for handling safety incidents. It includes documenting events, photographing equipment or site conditions, interviewing witnesses, and applying corrective actions. Supervisors ensure OSHA compliance, maintain records, and communicate lessons learned in meetings. By standardizing this workflow, site prep companies reduce risks, protect profitability, and strengthen professionalism. Clients benefit from assurance that crews work safely and responsibly. With this workflow in place, site preparation contractors can improve efficiency, strengthen accountability, and deliver projects more reliably while reinforcing a safety-first culture.
