The Safety Engineer is to be advised at the same
time as the hospital, or if this is not possible, have
the hospital notify him at the same time as the
doctor.

The Safety Engineer, in conjunction with the med-
ical staff, will determine whether it is necessary for
the General Superintendent to be advised immedi-
ately, in cases of night accidents.

In cases of FATAL accidents, the workings and
wreckage at the scene of the accident should not
be disturbed except for the purpose of rescue work.
This will enable easier investigation by the R.C.-
M.P. and government inspectors as well as com-
pany officials.

In cases of minor injuries requiring hospital treat-
ment, apply the first aid treatment indicated and
have the patient transported to the hospital.

FORESIGHT IS BETTER THAN NO SIGHT
