For most incidents at an offshore installation, the responsible person will be the dutyholder under the Offshore Installations and Pipeline Works Management and Administration Regulations For diving projects, the responsible person in relation to accidents and dangerous occurrences is the diving contractor. HSE Energy Division can provide specialist advice on the reporting procedure for offshore workers.
What records do I need to keep? When do I report an incident? An employer or person in control of premises If you are an employer If you are an employer, you must report any work-related deaths, and certain work-related injuries, cases of disease, and near misses involving your employees wherever they are working.
If you are in control of premises, If you are in control of premises, you must report any work-related deaths, certain injuries to members of the public and self-employed people on your premises, and dangerous occurrences some near miss incidents that occur on your premises.
Online form. If you are a gas engineer registered with the Gas Safe Register, you or your employer must provide details of any gas fittings, including appliances and flues or ventilation used with the appliances, that you consider to be dangerous, to such an extent that people could die, be rendered unconscious or need to be taken to hospital, because the design, construction, installation, modification or incorrect servicing could result in: an accidental leakage of gas; incomplete combustion of gas or ; inadequate removal of products of the combustion of gas.
Fittings that are dangerous solely due to lack of maintenance are not reportable Online form. In the following special cases, the responsible person is: In relation to a mine, the manager of that mine; In relation to a closed tip, the owner of the mine associated with that tip; In relation to a quarry, the operator of that quarry In relation to a dangerous occurrence: At a pipeline, the operator of that pipeline; At a well other than a water well , the person appointed to supervise operations , or where no person is appointed, the licensee under Section 3 of the Petroleum Act Is this page useful?
If working on your own premises, you should make the report. However, if employees witness or experience something falling under RIDDOR, they should report it to an appropriate supervisor.
What must be reported? An accident only need be reported if it is work-related and causes an injury of a reportable type. This means there must be an identifiable, unintended incident which causes physical injury, for example, when an object falls and strikes someone. In judging whether an injury is work-related, the responsible person should consider:.
Fatalities — all deaths to workers and non-workers must be reported if arising from a work-related accident, including an act of physical violence to a worker. This includes where a worker suffers a work-related accident that is then the cause of their death within a year of the accident date.
Suicides are not reportable as they do not result from a work-related accident. Any bone fracture, other than to a finger, thumb or toe. Bone fractures include a break, crack or chip. They are reportable when diagnosed or confirmed by a doctor. If an X-ray is not taken, there may be no definitive evidence of fracture but the injury will still be reportable if a doctor considers it likely there is a fracture.
Amputation of an arm, hand, finger, thumb, leg, foot or toe — both traumatic amputation at the accident time and surgical amputation following an accident as a result of the injuries sustained. Permanent blinding or reduction of sight in one or both eyes — any blinding or reduction in sight is reportable when a doctor diagnoses the effects are likely permanent.
Any crush injury to the head or torso causing damage to the brain or internal organs in the chest or abdomen. This includes burns caused by direct heat, chemical burns and radiological burns.
Where the eyes, respiratory system or other vital organs are significantly harmed, this is reportable irrespective of the surface area covered by that burn. Damage caused by smoke inhalation is not included in this definition. Any degree of scalping requiring hospital treatment.
Scalping is the traumatic separation or peeling of the skin from the head due to an accident, such as hair becoming entangled in machinery. Lacerations, where the skin is not separated from the head, are not included, nor are surgical procedures where skin removal is deliberate. Unconsciousness caused by head injury or asphyxia. The length of time someone remains unconscious is not significant in whether an incident is reportable.
Any other injury arising from working in an enclosed space which leads to hypothermia, heat-induced illness or requires resuscitation or admission to hospital for more than 24 hours. An enclosed space includes any space wholly or partly enclosed that creates a significantly increased health and safety risk.
It must also be reported if, following work injury, an employee or self-employed person is away from work or unable to perform their normal duties for more than seven consecutive days. Sometimes the full extent of an injury may be unclear, such as when a prognosis has not yet been made in relation to an eye injury. In such instances, a report need not be made until the final prognosis. The enforcing authority should be notified or updated as soon as a specified injury has been confirmed. Injuries to non-workers — all injuries to members of the public or non-workers must be reported if taken directly from the accident scene to hospital for treatment.
Reporting is not required if only taken to hospital as a precaution where no injury is apparent. Use the power of this intuitive tool to integrate with your organisation and pull your data into one risk status indicator. Once diagnosed, the following eight categories of reportable work-related illnesses must be reported by employers and the self-employed:.
In other words, instances when a serious accident was thankfully avoided. The regulations provide that an occurrence is dangerous if it arises out of or in connection with work and is within certain specified categories.
These apply to all workplaces and include dangerous occurrences involving lifting equipment, pressure systems, overhead electric lines, electrical incidents causing explosion or fire, other explosions, biological agents, radiation generators and radiography, breathing apparatus, diving operations, collapse of scaffolding, train collisions, wells and pipelines or pipeline works. These include structural collapses, explosions or fires, releases of flammable liquids and gases and hazardous escape of substances.
Industries with specific requirements are offshore workplaces, mines, quarries and relevant transport systems. The list is designed to obtain information mainly about incidents with a high potential to cause death or serious injury but that happen relatively infrequently. Distributors, fillers, importers and suppliers of flammable gas must report incidents where someone has died, lost consciousness or been taken to hospital for treatment to an injury arising in connection with that gas.
Registered gas engineers under the Gas Safe Register must provide details of any gas appliances or fittings they consider dangerous — to the extent people could die, lose consciousness or require hospital treatment. The danger could be due to the design, construction, installation, modification or servicing of appliances or fittings that could cause:.
