The guidance is primarily aimed at employers and it seeks to assist them in tackling some of these uncertainties over what should be reported and when. Contents: What you need to report and who is responsible for making the report; What types of accidents to members of the public are reportable?

What happens if the accident involves self-employed contractors? What are major injuries? What are over-three-day injuries? What other categories of incidents must you report? When and how to report; Who do you report accidents to? What records do you need to keep? Further reading; Further information. |
