Incident and Hazard Reporting
All staff are responsible for reporting hazards and incidents in the workplace to ensure they can be investigated and action taken to prevent recurrence and reduce risk.
A hazard is something that has the potential to cause harm to staff, students or visitors to the University. In some cases, it may be appropriate for a staff member to lodge a BEIMS maintenance request to correct a hazardous situation.
An incident is an accident or near miss that results in, or may result in injury, ill-health, damage or loss.
A staff member with a work related illness or injury should lodge a workers compensation claim.
