Health and safety - accident reporting
Employers have a duty to report certain dangerous occurrences and accidents at work to the relevant enforcing authority (HSE or Local Authority).
If you wish to report an accident contact the incident contact centre (RIDDOR) website
Some of these incidents/accidents will be investigated and the outcome of these enquiries usually involves the giving of advice to the employer. If a blatant breach of requirements is identified as the main reason for an accident happening, then formal action will be taken.
