ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT ACCIDENT AND INCIDENT REPORTINGREPORTING
Following any accident or incident it is important to record all details relating to the situation. The information contained in the accident book can often help employers to indentify accident trends and improve the general Health and Safety of the workplace. These records may also be required for insurance and investigative purposes. In 2003 a new accident book was introduced to comply with data protection legislation. It is designed so that any individual recording an accident is unable to access personal details of previous records.
