1. Reportable injuries

The death of any person

All incidents resulting in the death of a worker or non-worker will require the filing of a RIDDOR report if they arise from a work-related incident. The exception is in situations concerning suicide.

Specified injury to workers

The Specified Injuries include:

Bone fractures diagnosed by a registered medical professional

Crushing of the head or body that results in internal or brain damage

Burns covering more than 10% of the body or cause damage to the respiratory system, eyes and vital organs

Scalping

Head injuries or asphyxia that cause loss of consciousness

Injuries that occurred in an enclosed workplace resulting in: heat-induced illness, hypothermia, resuscitation or hospitalisation for more than 24 hours

Any of the listed injuries should be reported following the RIDDOR guidelines.

Seven-day injury

If the individual is off for more than seven consecutive days, then it must be reported. This doesn't include the day of injury and must be reported within 15 days of the injury's occurrence.

Three-day injury

If a worker is off for more than three days as a result of an injury the incident must be recorded but does not need to be reported.

Non-Fatal Accidents to Members of the Public

Any injury to a non-worker that results in hospitalisation must be reported in compliance with the RIDDOR guidelines.

2. Occupational Diseases

Both employers and self-employed individuals must report any diagnosis of the following conditions in a RIDDOR report:

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Cramp of the hand or forearm

Occupational dermatitis

Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome:

Occupational asthma:

Tendonitis or tenosynovitis:

A doctor must provide a diagnosis in writing for an employer however a verbal statement is sufficient for a self-employed individual.

3. Dangerous Occurrences

These are incidents that could cause injury or illness to a worker. These are close-call incidents. Not all incidents need to be reported so you should consult the actual regulations to see if you need to fill out a RIDDOR report

4. Gas Incidents

A gas incident must be reported if it has caused the death of any individual. Additionally, a registered gas engineer must advise on any dangerous gas related issues that could cause the following:

The accidental leakage of gas

Incomplete combustion of gas

Inadequate removal of the product of gas combustion

Who is exempt from reporting under RIDDOR?

Whilst there are a number of incidents that are reportable under RIDDOR, there are several exemptions that you should still monitor but not necessarily report to the HSE Executive.
The following items are exempt under RIDDOR and are sourced from the HSE Executive (2021)

1. accidents during medical or dental treatment, or during any examination carried out or supervised by a doctor or dentist

2. accidents involving a moving vehicle on a public road (other than those associated with: loading or unloading operations; work alongside the road such as road maintenance; escapes of substances from the vehicle and accidents involving trains)

3. accidents to members of the armed forces on duty

You also do not need to report some incidents when you are already following similar reporting requirements under other legislation:

1. Nuclear Installations Act 1965

2. Merchant Shipping Act 1988

3. Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999

4. Civil Aviation (Investigation of Military Air Accidents at Civil Aerodromes) Regulations 2005

5. Civil Aviation (Investigation of Air Accidents and Incidents) Regulations 1996

6. Electricity Safety, Quality and Continuity Regulations 2002

The HSE Executive also has limited power to grant exemptions to the regulations. They can provide exemptions when European legislation allows it and they feel it will not negatively impact on people's health and safety.

How do I make a RIDDOR report?

Making a RIDDOR report can be done online through the HSE Executive website. Our article provides you with information on how to fill out a RIDDOR report and everything you need to know about which report you need to fill in.

Over-7-day incapacitation of a worker

Work-related accidents must be reported where they result in an employee (or self-employed person) being away from work, or unable to do their normal work duties, for more than 7 consecutive days as the result of their injury.

Where the worker’s injury or condition does not become apparent until some time after the accident, it must be reported as soon as it has prevented them from doing their normal work duties for more than 7 consecutive days.

This 7-day period does not include the day of the accident, but does include weekends and rest days. The report must be made within 15 days of the accident.

Some situations will include days when the injured person would not normally have been expected to work. You must take those days into account when deciding whether they were unable to do their normal duties for ‘more than 7 consecutive days’.

# data[].attributes.body
Over-3-day incapacitation

Accidents must be recorded where they result in a worker being away from work, or unable to do their normal work duties, for more than 3 consecutive days.

As an employer, you don’t need to report this type of accident – recording it in your accident book (under social security law) will be enough.

There is information on HSE’s accident book.
