Incident Reporting

All accidents and incidents must be reported to IRATA within seven days of the event. If an accident is ‘Over-7-days’ (i.e. injury results in 7-days or more away from work) it must be reported to IRATA immediately thereafter.

If you have a ‘Dangerous Occurrence’, (any event where no injury occurred, but may have caused injury or death), it must be reported to IRATA as soon as practicable, but within 7 days.

An incident investigation may be incomplete. However, a report must still be made to IRATA; albeit provisional. You should include as much detail as possible in your report (avoiding speculation). It can be updated later, as conclusions are reached (by contacting [email protected]).
