The Incidents tool captures safety events — injuries, near-misses, property damage, and observations — with enough detail to investigate the cause and support regulatory reporting. Recording incidents promptly and consistently is the foundation of a defensible safety program.
Record an incident
1
Open Incidents
Go to Safety & Compliance → Incidents and click New Incident.
2
Classify the event
Choose the incident type and severity. The form adapts to capture the right details for that type.
3
Capture the facts
Record who, what, when, and where, with photos and witness statements. Be factual and specific.
4
Investigate and follow up
Document the root cause and corrective actions, and assign follow-ups so they’re tracked to completion.
Troubleshooting
I need to report this to OSHA / a regulator
Complete the incident record first — it gives you the structured facts needed for the regulatory form.
