/>iIn this episode of the Safety Perspectives From Region 6 podcast series, shareholders Frank Davis (Dallas) and John Surma (Houston) provide an overview of their recent three-part series on fatality and catastrophe investigations conducted by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
Our speakers discuss the importance of scene preservation with regard to spoliation of evidence, accurate reporting of accidents that occur in the workplace, and best practices in the timeframe immediately following accidents. Frank and John, who are members of Ogletree’s Workplace Safety and Health Practice Group, address the option of offering counseling or other mental health assistance to workers who witness accidents, as well as discuss witness preparation and the risk of criminal liability.
