Tell us how do you handle record-keeping?

Submitted by: Muhammad

Your prospective employer is trying to determine whether you place proper importance on protecting the company from liability. A good answer may go something like this: “I've found that keeping accurate records, while it may not be exciting, is critical in protecting both the company and the employees. If there were an accident, for instance, it would be important to be able to prove that we had provided necessary training and had the right policies in place. I also think it's crucial to make a thorough report of an accident right away, while the details are still fresh. If an injured employee later tells a different story, it's important to have an accurate record.”
