English term or phrase: where a witness falls on the axis

A variety of information regarding the members of staff involved in the planning, supervision and performance of the activity surrounding the incident is of relevance to the investigation, in order that an assessment can be made of their capability, capacity and competence in the respective roles they fulfilled.
It also provides valuable context to witness perceptions surrounding what took place and the actions of other people involved.
A witness statement from a knowledgeable person, experienced in the activity that led to the incident may lend a totally different perspective from an uninformed onlooker.
Access to the information should always be in full consultation with Human Resource (HR) professionals who will advise on legal issues, company policy and individual privacy rights.
Use this opportunity to reinforce the benefits of having a member of the HR Team assigned to support the investigation to assist with all related personnel matters.
Acknowledge that there can be legal and privacy issues that have to be respected surrounding the disclosure of certain personal information but that is where the advice and support of HR is crucial.
The time a person has been employed by the company and the roles performed during it can provide some indication of their exposure to and familiarity with organisational culture, policy and procedure, their own level of experience and knowledge of the responsibilities of other workers allied to particular processes and activities.
In certain cases their experience with previous employers can be of relevance to benchmark policy, practice, procedures and culture against.
The Witness Axis
Explain that the better the understanding of **where a witness falls on the axis**, the better tailored the interview approach will be towards a successful outcome.
The key to gaining an understanding of the witness’s position is effective Planning and Preparation ie due diligence.
1.
Explain the horizontal axis that surrounds witness ability.
Relate it to some of the factors that could affect the ability of a direct witness ie time lapse, multiple simultaneous events, intellect, trauma, distracted, lack of knowledge etc
Highlight that even though someone is present at an event and there is an expectation that they will have a certain level of knowledge, this can be impacted upon just by the speed things happened at or their focus being elsewhere.
Demonstrate how someone can move along the ability axis.
For example they can recall all events surrounding granting of permits, set up of the job, can tell you where, when the incident happened and who was there, they can tell you what equipment was being used and how the task was being approached but they can’t tell you exactly what another member of the workparty did or was doing when the incident occurred.
