Inquiry procedure for workplace accidents defines who may appear, how evidence may be compelled, and when reports must be submitted.

Persons entitled to appear at an inquiry include enforcement authorities, employers' associations, trade unions, injured persons or their representatives, the employer, persons carrying on the work, and others allowed by the competent person. Corporate bodies, Government departments, employers' associations and trade unions may be represented by specified officers or counsel, and persons with similar interests may be grouped for representation. The competent person may require attendance of persons likely to give material evidence or produce documents, controls the procedure subject to natural justice, and must complete and submit the inquiry or survey within three months of constitution.
