Document the causes, corrective actions, and preventative actions that are associated with a health and safety incident.
Document the efforts at preventative hazard control.
Document the corrective and preventative actions that you implemented as a result of the analysis of hazards that are associated with a particular job or location.
Use the Corrective page (HS_INC_ACTION_CRCT) to enter corrective and preventive actions.

'Other' Description |
This field is available only to users in British Columbia when they enter the preventative action code 00996. Users in British Columbia may enter descriptions of nonstandard preventative actions, which are then used in reports to the British Columbia Workers Compensation Board (BC WCB). Users in British Columbia must first ensure that the preventative action codes that are entered in the CAN Preventative Actions table are the approved codes that are used by the BC WCB, including the code 00996 - Other. If you are a user in British Columbia, and if the approved codes are entered into that table and the incident that you are currently working with has the Regulatory Region CANBC applied to it, then when you select a Preventative Action code of 00996 - Other in the Preventative Action field on this page, the 'Other' Description field is available for data entry. Enter a description of the nonstandard preventative action. |
Note: (CAN) For users in British Columbia who report incidents to the BC WCB electronically, the Hazard code and the Preventative Action code are required fields.
