This investigation identified a trend in terms of the non-reporting of RRV incidents and accidents, by both the contractors and IÉ-IM, this in turn lead to failures to complete the D&A screening in some instances; as a result, the RAIU make the following safety recommendation:
IÉ-IM should review the ways in which it promotes a positive safety culture that encourages contractors to report accidents, incidents and dangerous occurrences (near misses); this can be achieved through RRVO workshops and the absence of disciplinary procedures on the reporting of occurrences.
