3.L.2 Hazzard/Injury/Incident Reporting

How to Report a Hazard or Injury or Incident:

All managers and workers including contractors are required to complete an incident form if a hazard/injury/incident occurs, and:

• Advise the Station Manager of the incident or injury or hazard
• For recording purposes complete a Hazard/Injury/Incident Report Form
• Complete the relevant sections of the form giving details of the incident. The form should be completed even when an injury has not occurred, that is, in the event of a near miss
• All hard copy forms should be signed by the relevant parties
• The Manager or their delegate must record all injuries on the injury register
• Internal reporting of any hazard/injury/incident should occur is separate from reporting of notifiable incidents to Comcare.

The Hazard/Injury/Incident Report form is found in the job management system forms.
