When notifying about a death resulting from an incident, what additional information must be provided?

The requirement to provide specific information when notifying about a death resulting from an incident is crucial for ensuring proper investigation and accountability. Including the name of the person who died and the circumstances surrounding the incident helps authorities understand the context of the event, which is essential for implementing corrective measures to prevent future occurrences. This information allows for a detailed examination of the incident, aiding in the processes of investigation and reporting as mandated by Queensland mining laws.

In contrast, merely stating the time of the incident does not provide enough context or detail for regulatory bodies or stakeholders involved. Previous incident reports may be relevant for long-term safety evaluations but do not address the immediate need for information about the specific situation at hand. General statistics about mine safety, while informative for overall trends, also do not pertain to the individual incident and therefore would not contribute to the specific notification requirements. Thus, option B is essential to ensure compliance with the legal obligations surrounding workplace safety and incident reporting in the mining sector.
