REPORT OF INVESTIGATION

11. CONCLUSION

NEAR MISS FORM

11.1 The near miss form submitted on 4th June 1998 refers to pre-mediatated harassment and bullying. If Wigglesworth believed that to be so he should have used the County Council’s harassment procedures which was clearly indicated in the newsletter No 8 September 1997. Additionally the near miss was factually incorrect in that the letter to which he referred, was written by the Human Resources Manager and not the DCFO.

11.2 Wigglesworth has sought to put a health and safety interpretation on the near miss form and during interview suggested that the letter had, in effect, been a “direct hit”. In which case, the accident report form may have been the more appropriate record to complete.
