Stop Investigating Everything, with Mark Alston and myosh.
About this episode
Mark Alston discusses the shortcomings of current investigation practices in workplace safety and introduces the Event Learning Assessment as a solution.
We run more investigations than ever, so why aren't workplaces getting safer? In this episode, Mark Alston of Investigations Differently argues the problem starts with how we classify events. Mark unpacks why our injury classifications are largely made up, why a month-long investigation that ends in a ‘watch where you're walking’ toolbox talk is a red flag, and how the Event Learning Assessment helps you match effort to the genuine opportunity to learn. You'll hear why ‘credible potential’ matters, why you should give your team permission not to investigate, and how to reframe the whole thing around risk. Who should listen Safety managers, investigators and operations leaders who are buried in incident paperwork that never seems to change anything, and anyone curious about Safety Differently, HOP and the New View in practice.
