HSE reminds firms of changes to incident reporting system

New incident reporting arrangements for businesses were introduced from September 2011, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has reiterated. Only fatal and major injuries and incidents will now be able to be reported by phone to the HSE, with all other work-related injuries and incidents reportable under the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995 (RIDDOR) to be submitted via one of a suite of seven online forms available on the HSE website. The seven online RIDDOR reporting forms will be: F2508 Report of an injury; F2508 Report of a dangerous occurrence; F2508A Report of a case of disease; OIR9B Report of an injury offshore; OIR9B Report of a dangerous occurrence offshore; F2508G1 Report of a flammable gas incident; and F2508G2 Report of a dangerous gas fitting. http://www.personneltoday.com/articles/02/10/2011/58006/hse-reminds-firms-of-changes-to-incident-reporting-system.htm#.UVmRitGI70M
