Overview

ICAM Governance Workshop course overview

When reviewing investigation reports, executive teams need to be confident that lessons have been identified, not just blame assigned. As leaders, they set the standard for how incidents are understood and how learning is applied across the organisation. This half-day ICAM Governance Workshop is designed for directors, senior managers, and senior health and safety professionals who need the knowledge and confidence to effectively review investigation findings and ensure meaningful organisational learning.
 
We don’t rely on lengthy, lecture-style delivery. Instead, this workshop is practical and engaging, delivered by experienced senior health and safety professionals. It focuses on how leaders engage with the ICAM methodology from a governance perspective. Participants develop an understanding of multiple causation, organisational and human factors, and how to assess the quality of investigation findings and recommendations, along with key considerations such as legal privilege and confidentiality.
 
IMPAC’s focus is on building practical capability so leaders can provide informed oversight and drive meaningful outcomes from investigations. Participants step back into the workplace equipped to critically review investigation reports, ask the right questions, and ensure corrective actions support improved safety outcomes across the organisation.

Curriculum

What you'll cover

This course is designed for:
  • Directors and senior managers with governance responsibility for health and safety performance.
  • Senior health and safety professionals who review and approve investigation recommendations and actions.
  • People responsible for commissioning ICAM investigations and reviewing investigation findings and reports.
  • Leaders who need to understand whether investigations have identified the underlying organisational and human factors, rather than focusing only on individual blame.

Our approach

+IMPAC's ICAM Governance Workshop training approach

This is a practical, discussion-led workshop for leaders who need to review investigations well, not run the investigation themselves. Facilitators work through sample findings, report-review exercises, and guided discussion so participants can test whether an investigation has identified the real causes, whether recommendations are proportionate, and whether follow-up actions are likely to improve safety performance.

The session focuses on the judgement calls leaders actually need to make. Participants look at how ICAM methodology is applied, how organisational and human factors should show up in an investigation, and what good governance oversight looks like when accountability, learning, legal privilege, and confidentiality all need to be considered together.
