Safety Incidents

The safety incident register records accidents, injuries, work-related illness, near misses, property and environmental damage, the investigation and the corrective actions that follow.

Reporting an incident

1. Click Report an incident.
2. Enter a Title, the Date and Time, the Work location (from Settings → Business address) and the exact place.
3. Pick the Type (injury, near miss, illness, property damage, environmental, other), Severity (minor, moderate, major, critical) and Injury (none, first aid, medical treatment, lost time, fatality).
4. Describe what happened and the immediate action taken.
5. Add the people involved – employees or visitors/contractors by name – as injured, witness or involved.
6. Attach photos or forms and click Save. The incident gets a number such as INC-0004.

Safety officers (Register settings → Notify about new incidents) are notified. With none chosen, everyone with Manage Safety Register is.

Investigating and closing

Corrective actions have a description, an owner and a due date. Owners are notified and can mark their own action done; overdue actions are flagged. An incident cannot be closed while actions are open.

Reportable incidents

Tick Reportable to an authority when the law requires you to notify a regulator (labour inspectorate, HSE/RIDDOR in the UK, OSHA in the US, SafeWork in Australia…), then record the authority, its reference and the date reported. The register does not decide reportability for you — check your country's rules.

Exporting

Export (Excel/CSV) and Export PDF with the filters you set (date range, status, severity, type, reportable only).
