Work accident reporting and post-accident procedure — step-by-step
- Immediate reporting
- The worker must immediately report any incident or accident to their supervisor/head of area at the client/user company and simultaneously to the occupational health & safety professional of the staffing/service company.
- Supervisor notification
- The supervisor/head of area notifies the person in charge of occupational health & safety at the client/user company.
- Client-company review & communication
- The client-company’s OSH person reviews the event and immediately communicates with the staffing/service company’s OSH area — generally without exceeding one business day after occurrence.
- Documentation request and report preparation
- The staffing/service company’s OSH area requests materials to prepare the official report, typically including:
- Written account of the accident from the injured employee and written statements from any witness workers.
- Photographic record of the injured worker’s injury.
- Photographic record of the accident scene/place.
- A drawing of the accident scene/moment made by the injured worker.
- If reporting exceeds the legal deadline to notify occupational risk administrators (two business days from the event), the injured worker and the client-company OSH responsible must immediately send a letter justifying the late report.
- The staffing/service company’s OSH area requests materials to prepare the official report, typically including:
- Immediate assistance and medical care
- Provide first aid/assistance to the injured person.
- Refer the injured person to one of the company’s partner clinics.
- If life‑threatening, take the injured person to the nearest clinic or hospital.
- Medical documentation and administrative follow-up
- After medical attention, submit medical documentation (disability certificates, medical recommendations, other pertinent documents) to the administrative area.
- Disability reporting procedure:
- First notify the client company’s administrative area about the disability.
- Send the original medical documentation (disability certificate, assigned treatment) to the administrative area.
- If the disability is extended, notify the client company and administrative area again and send the updated documentation.
Additional messages
- Workers are valuable contributors to company development and to the social, environmental and economic responsibilities of partner groups.
- Employees are encouraged to apply OSH principles and procedures learned in training.
