Accident and Incident Reporting Training

Did you know less than a fifth of all non-fatal workplace injuries are reported under RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations)?

Nobody wants accidents to happen. But sadly accidents at work can happen and it is important for everyone to know what to do in case it does. A good accident reporting can help to increase safety at work. It also helps you to avoid further accidents in the future. If you want to help maintain a safe working environment, then an accident reporting course can offer all the insight you need to make your business a safer place for all.

Reporting accidents is a vital process for any and all workplaces. By recording accidents, you can identify the causes of injury and then take steps to remove or control them. Remember! Reporting accidents is a LEGAL REQUIREMENT; failure to do so can lead to getting sued, fined or prison sentences.

This short yet comprehensive course equips you to fully understand and implement accident reporting skills. You’ll be able to understand what, when and how to report accidents or incidents in the workplace. The course covers all the relevant criteria of RIDDOR 2013 and all other relevant criteria as well.
