Structured, evidence-based investigation of workplace accidents and incidents to identify causes and prevent recurrence.
Learning from Events Without Losing the Facts
MIAC Services supports employers in Cyprus following accidents, dangerous occurrences and near misses. The investigation focuses on what happened, why controls failed and what must change. It does not stop at identifying individual error.
Investigation May Include
- preservation and review of available evidence
- site examination and photographic records
- interviews with relevant persons
- review of risk assessments, procedures, training and supervision
- examination of equipment, maintenance and working conditions
- analysis of immediate, underlying and organisational causes
- corrective and preventive action plan
- support with internal reporting and authority requests
Our Investigation Process
1. Immediate Review
We clarify the event, secure relevant information and identify urgent controls.
2. Evidence Collection
We examine the scene, documents, equipment and reliable witness information.
3. Cause Analysis
We distinguish immediate events from underlying and management-system factors.
4. Action and Follow-Up
We define prioritised measures and review whether they have been implemented.
Prevention, Not Blame
A sound investigation seeks reliable facts and system improvements. Essential controls must be restored before affected work resumes, and the relevant risk assessments and procedures must be reviewed.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should an investigation begin?
As soon as immediate safety, medical and emergency needs have been addressed and evidence can be preserved.
Do you investigate near misses?
Yes. Near misses can reveal serious weaknesses before someone is harmed.
Do you provide legal representation?
No. We provide technical investigation and prevention support; legal advice should be obtained from an appropriately qualified adviser.
