Incident reporting

Incident reporting is a significant part of H&S management. If an incident or accident happens at your ministry unit, no matter to whom and regardless of whether it is “work-related” or not, it needs to be reported. The diagram below gives a useful summary of the process to follow.

WorkSafe has a great online tool to work out if an incident is notifiable or not. You can find it on their website worksafe.govt.nz > Notify WorkSafe. Or call them on 0800 030 040.

Incidents need to be reported so we have a greater understanding of the risks our ministry units are facing and the actions being taken to eliminate or minimise them. This means the HSWG, Diocesan Council and General Trust Board can meet their H&S obligations.
