Supporting RIDDOR.
The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995 (RIDDOR), place a legal duty on:
· employers;
· self-employed people;
· people in control of premises;
to report work-related deaths, major injuries or over-three-day injuries, work related diseases, and dangerous occurrences (near miss accidents).
There is a well established web page available within the HSE web site at http://www.hse.gov.uk/riddor/report.htm where a Health and Safety Officer within a company or organisation can report such matters to comply with legislation.
THE BIG PROBLEM FOR THE HEALTH & SAFETY OFFICER IS...... How do you get that information reported back from staff within your organisation to the Health & Safety Officer for him or her to report back to HSE?
This was certainly a headache for a number of our jComply clients until, working with a Health and Safety Officer from one of our local authority clients, Tabaq Software developed an e-form module to support the reporting process.
The e-form module utilises the workflow and reporting features already built into jComply as well as the user security facilities that can identify who has used the e-form and can restrict usability at various stages of the workflow.
The health and safety reports that are included within the e-forms module are Accident Reporting, Incident Reporting, Near Miss Reports/ Hazard Report Form and a Health and Safety Check list
The benefits are tremendous and include:
ü A full audit and reporting process for accident and incident internal reporting.
ü eMail notification and time nagging for users and managers to act on.
ü All mandatory fields are forced for completion.
ü All incidents are now stored and archived within jComply and are easily searchable for later retrieval.
ü Additional reports can be produced for line managers and outside agencies as PDF’s automatically.
ü Overall time saving for health and safety officer when administering the process.
