Add rows to a table, based on data from an existing column

I want to generate a Power BI report based on the information from a spreadsheet. One of the columns has additional names, which I would like to take and create new rows in this table. Do I have to create two tables from the data, then append them? Thank you.

Sorry, my first post and I'm new to Power BI. One table, the second table is how I want the first table to look. The first table is a report on hazard assessment forms completed by workers, the one column contains the names of workers involved in the hazard assessment. I want totals for each work involved in the hazard assessment process, not just those who completed the form. For if 50 hazard assessments were completed, and 12 additional workers were involved in those 50 HA, the number of rows in the table should be 62.

It depends, you can append the dashboards, but you could also just load the tables in normally and create a relationship between the two tables. It's hard to say given the little information you've provided.
