If by the operations in my business, someone gets to die in the process by mistake, what should I do? Let's say that my business vehicle knocks down a person and the person dies, what is the first move I should make in such a instance?

In the event of a serious accident resulting in death, such as hitting someone with a company vehicle, the first step is to secure the scene, provide assistance, and call the authorities for intervention. Then, an official report of the accident must be filed with labor and safety authorities, cooperate with the investigation, and follow the appropriate legal and administrative procedures to address the situation.

In my country if that happens you are supposed to report the matter to the police and the law takes its immediate course.

If the accident is done in the high way you need to call the road and traffic officer. It's one process to be covered with an insurance and a proof to court for court proceedings and doctor's confirmation is also a must to prove the cause of the fatal accident. It's in the court you can negotiate either to pay the victims' relatives or serve your crime, which is which.

It is at this point that insurance would need to come to play. But the first thing to do is to report to the police that your business has killed someone.

If a business operation mistakenly causes someone's death, the business and its responsible individuals could face criminal charges, such as manslaughter or criminal negligent homicide
