Reporting and analysing an incident will only work if the procedure is simple, otherwise the victim will fail to comply. Often the most effective road to recovery is by sharing the incident and good practice with colleagues in a social situation, which is supportive and un- threatening. The role of management is to analyse all incidents and see if the risk of repetition can be reduced by changing best practice, followed by appropriate training. Enforcement agents should refer all incidents to their employer or main contractor, both for their own support and for the benefit of colleagues. 63
