Title: Oh No – Why Did it have to Happen to Us?
You are the OH&S specialist at Lordco (an auto parts dealer in Prince George). Bob, the
operations manager just reported to you that Susan who works in the parts warehouse just
hurt her leg in the warehouse this afternoon. She’s currently at the University Hospital of
Northern B.C. (UHNBC – Prince George’s regional hospital) having her leg injury assessed by
doctors.
Bob wants to ensure that Lordco does everything possible to determine the nature of the injury
sustained as well as how it happened so that it doesn’t happen again.
Part 1
Bob instructs you to put together a plan for how you will determine how the injury/incident
occurred. The plan must be realistic and include details that apply to this type of workplace.
Ensure that the plan has clear steps of what you will do and in what order and how it will be
applied to the Lordco organization. (1/2 marks for theory only, full marks for application to
Lordco).
Part 2

answer them in the same order you see below. Ensure that your answers are specific to the
Lordco organization.
