The definition of Accident in the law of the United States, as defined by the lexicographer Arthur Leff in his legal dictionary is: 1. A state of affairs or incident brought about by accidental means.
In the past, the term accident was often used when referring to an unplanned, unwanted event. To many, accident suggests an event that was random, and could not have been prevented. Since nearly all worksite fatalities, injuries, and illnesses are preventable, OSHA suggests using the term incident investigation.
