Changes to RIDDOR reporting - 20/09/2011

From 12th 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 on-line system. Revised online forms will make the reporting process quick and easy.

Businesses will no longer be able to report incidents by email, post or fax.

Fatal and major injuries and incidents can still be reported to HSE's Incident Contact Centre by telephone, as at present.

The seven online RIDDOR reporting forms will be:

  • 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
