Triage and Managers

When a staff member reports an incident or safety observation, the report will be assigned to their Manager. That is the person who approves your leave in PeopleSoft. 

Managers get to know first-hand what is happening with health and safety in their department, school, or faculty.

Please see the video and pdf guide on the indepth assura guidence page.

Investigations and DSOs

When a Manager determines the severity of an incident or safety observation (realised or potential) to be moderate (medical treatment),���������Ծ��ھ������Գ���(hospitalisation),��������ǰ���(fatality or permanent disability), or catastrophic (multiple fatalities), then a DSO will be assigned to investigate. 

DSOs are the best equipped to complete an investigate as the safety leaders in their departments. 

Please see the video below on how to complete the investigation section in Assura.
