AIM : Detailed Input Mode - Page 5 of 6
In detailed mode an accident, incident or near-miss is broken down into four logical sections, these being event, initial investigation, full investigation and final sign-off. Each of these four sections is allocated its' own input form.
Inputting records in detailed mode can be found under the Home ribbon.
The following pages will provide an overview of inputting records via the detailed mode.
Tab 3 - The Detailed Investigation
TIP: In the memo field if you highlight text and hover your mouse over your selection AIM will bring up a floating font edit menu.
Where the full investigation check box is ticked AIM will make entries into this section unavailable.
For more serious or potentially serious accidents there will usually be the need for a fuller investigation into the circumstances. The full investigating officer will normally be a member of management with the task of concluding more detailed facts and wider implications of the accident. He or she will usually pick up from the initial investigating officer's report. Companies will have notably different guidelines and criteria regarding the qualifications, skills and responsibilities of their investigating officers.
Users can select the full investigating officer from the drop-down box or add a new entry as summarized in the getting started section.
The date entered for the initial investigation is a company preference. Some companies will use the date the investigating officer was appointed, while others will prefer to use the date the initial investigation was completed.
The investing officer table does not force users into adding additional data such as designation and location. However, the down-load box will look somewhat blank without this support data.
