Accident Reporting

• Each site uses an HSE approved Accident Book for recording all accidents. You will find the book with the Site Agent/Manager.
  
  If you are injured at work, you must report the accident to the site team and your employers as soon as you can. The report must be entered in the Accident Book. Occurrence of certain diseases or dangerous occurrences must also be recorded. See site reference documentation.
  
  The prompt reporting of an accident or incident may well result in saving a life.
  
  Your co-operation is therefore very important. If there is an accident / incident at your work place, help by:-
  
  • Making sure that, where necessary, first aid assistance is called immediately.
  
  • Report without delay to your site team & health and safety officer, even when no person has been injured or plant damaged.
  
  • Ensure in the case of serious personal injury, that the accident site is left undisturbed until clearance is given by your health & safety officer & site team. It is worth noting that it is good practice to take photos of the incident and surrounding area.
  
  • Ensuring that any items which may assist in the accident investigation (e.g. damaged fittings, broken ladders) are retained and passed to your health and safety officer.
  
  Minor accidents can lead to death, as one case of treading on a nail did. This occurred because the person suffered from diabetes and did not report it. By the time he went to hospital the problem was so serious that they had to amputate his leg. Whilst undergoing the operation he died. The issue was the wound was infected and sepsis (blood poisoning) occured.
  
  Accident investigations will be held to review over 3 day accidents, major injuries and dangerous occurrences with the intention of helping to prevent similar occurrences and complying with the law.
  Remember to report any accident asap, it could help you in the future.
