Anyone can report to OSHA what they believe to be a violation of OSHA requirements, but only an employee can file a formal complaint with OSHA alleging that the employer has violated OSHA requirements. Complaints from non-employees are likely to receive less intense attention, unless they come from clearly knowledgeable healtha and safety professionals or relate to extremely hazardous situations.
Contact your local OSHA office to report this.
Report to them or Osha if they don't take it seriously.
The answer to this question will depend on what type of accident is being investigated as well as the location. For example, an industrial accident in the US might qualify for assistance from OSHA. An accident involving public transport or a common carrier such as an airline or rail service would warrant investigation from the NTSB. A car accident would be investigated by local law enforcement authorities, while other types of accidents might warrant the use of a professional licensed private investigator to determine liability.
