» Back to listing New HSE RIDDOR Reporting Guidance

From 12 September 2011, statutory reporting to HSE of work-related injuries and incidents under RIDDOR (the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995) will move to a predominantly online system. Revised online forms will make the reporting process quick and easy. Employers will no longer report incidents by email, post or fax.

The Incident Contact Centre will still take reports of all fatal and major incidents by telephone, but people reporting all other incidents will be required to submit an online form, available on HSE’s website.
The online forms are:

F2508 Report of an injury
F2508 Report of a Dangerous Occurrence
F2508A Report of a Case of Disease
OIR9B Report of an Injury Offshore
OIR9B Report of a Dangerous Occurrence Offshore
F2508G1 Report of a Flammable Gas Incident
F2508G2 Report of a Dangerous Gas Fitting
 

The revised online reporting forms are intended to be interactive, intuitive and easy for people to use. An online help facility will also be provided.
