Health and Safety
Reporting
Accidents
You need to notify the appropriate
authority in the event of certain accidents and dangerous
occurrences.
|
Accidents must be reported immediately if they
are 'major injuries', specific dangerous occurrences or if a
non-employee has to go to hospital. Other accidents where a worker
is unable to do their normal job for 3 or more days should be
reported within 10 days.
These incidents are fully explained in the Health and Safety
Executive's
reporting of injuries, diseases and dangerous
occurrences regulations leaflet (PDF, 142k).
Accidents should be reported to either the
Incident
Contact Centre in Wales or to us at
Alice Billings
House.
Other employers must notify the ICC in Wales or report accidents
directly to the Health & Safety Executive (HSE).
