REPORT OF INVESTIGATION
5. INVESTIGATION RESULT
5.4 DDO Hayden agreed he did speak to the person assisting Wigglesworth and that he took him away from the drill yard. DO Hayden says he did not do this deliberately as he was not aware of the arrangements at the time. DO Hayden said there were plenty of other individuals who were available to assist Wigglesworth with any heavy lifting. He also said that there was plenty of time available for other manual handling options to be put in place as the drill was not imminent.
5.5 According to DO Hayden, the return to work interview, where he investigated the accident with Wigglesworth, lasted over 30 minutes. As the previous health and safet y officer, he asked Wigglesworth clear, precise questions and looked at the relevant causes of the accident: he also checked the standard of his fire kit which was in good condition.
5.6 DO Hayden acknowledges that not all safe systems of work are in writing. He points out that Wigglesworth, as well as being an experience instructor, is also a manual handling instructor who was familiar with the requirements of moving drill dummies about. His conclusion was that Wigglesworth was at blame for the accident.
