Overview
What this RAVS document does
Every ISNetworld questionnaire includes incident reporting and investigation, because a hiring client wants to know that when something goes wrong on its sites, the contractor reports it, investigates it to root cause, and closes it with corrective actions. A vague answer that does not show a real process - or that misses the legal duty to report serious incidents - will not clear review.
This document states your company's incident reporting and investigation procedure in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: what counts as an incident or near miss, who must be notified and when, how an investigation finds root cause rather than blame, and how corrective actions are tracked to closure. Each point ties back to Alberta OHS legislation. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that an incident reporting answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For the incident reporting and investigation element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- A written incident reporting and investigation procedure with a clear purpose and scope
- Clear definitions of an incident, a near miss, and a serious injury or incident
- What must be reported, to whom, and within what timeline
- The legal duty to report serious injuries and incidents to Alberta OHS
- An investigation method that identifies root cause rather than assigning blame
- Corrective actions tracked to closure, with trends reviewed over time

Who it is for
Who needs this RAVS
This RAVS is for any Alberta contractor working through ISNetworld, Avetta, or ComplyWorks - incident reporting and investigation is one of the most universally required elements, across construction, oil and gas, utilities, transportation, manufacturing, and the trades. If a hiring client's pre-qualification configuration flags incident reporting, this is the document the reviewer is waiting on.
Practical guidance
How to pass the incident reporting review the first time
- Know the regulator-reporting duty. The RAVS describes reporting serious injuries and incidents to Alberta OHS. Make sure your supervisors know what triggers that duty and how quickly it applies.
- Investigate to root cause, not blame. ISNetworld reviewers and hiring clients want a method that finds the system causes of an incident. A document that stops at worker error reads as weak.
- Track corrective actions to closure. The document states that corrective actions are assigned and closed. Keep the tracker current - a hiring client audit will ask to see that findings were actually resolved.
