Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicNew Incident Entry

Use the injury and illness pages to track an organization’s response to health and safety incidents. Track employees and non-employees and associate multiple individuals with a single incident.

If you do not yet know the details of an injury or illness, you can enter this data on the injury and illness pages later. Enter the information here before viewing the injury and illness summary by individual.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicIncident Numbers

When you enter a new incident, you assign an ID number to the incident. This number locates the incident record when you review it or add information later. The system automatically assigns the incident number or you enter the number.

If the system assigns the number, it first appears as 00000000. The actual number that is assigned to the incident appears after you save the information that you enter on the Incident Data pages. The system stores the last incident number that is used in the Installation table.

The incident numbers that Human Resources assigns are simple consecutive numbers. They may not correspond to any incident numbering that authorities in a particular regulatory region require. Ensure that you clearly understand and follow any incident numbering system that regulatory authorities prescribe. If the governing authorities in the regulatory region require a particular incident numbering scheme, then manually enter the numbers and carefully document the methods.

Warning! To avoid maintaining two different sets of incident numbers, either always assign numbers manually or always let the system do it.

The system generates a number of incident reports, some of which contain information that is reported to government agencies.

Incident Number

The incident number that you entered appears here.

If you report to the British Columbia Workers’ Compensation Board (BC WCB), enter an incident number.

Incident Type

The default value is Incident, which you can change. The selected value controls the availability of other fields that are in the component.

If you file incident reports electronically with the BC WCB, leave the default value of Incident if you report an outcome of reported only, health care only, short term disability, or fatality. If you report an incident outcome of dangerous occurrences, select Dangerous Occurrence.

Details

If you select Vehicle/Equipment Accident, the Details link appears. Click this link to access the Vehicle/Equipment Accident Details page.

Incident Date

The default value is today's date, which you can change.

Incident Time

Enter the time that the incident occurred.

If you are reporting to the BC WCB, ensure that you enter the time.

Time Undetermined

Sect if you cannot determine the time the incident ocurred.

Regulatory Region

Enter the regulatory region for the incident. When you add an incident, the user’s regulatory region that is specified in user preferences appears by default. You can override this value.

Note. This field controls the values that are returned by all of the Monitoring Health and Safety setup tables that use setID as their key field.

Warning! If you change the regulatory region for an existing incident, and the setID for the previous and current regulatory regions differ, the system deletes all of the relevant linked values from the setup tables. Before proceeding with the change, the system prompts you to confirm the action. When the original information is deleted, you must reenter the data for the incident.

Is This a Recurrence

Select if this incident has happened before.

Resulted in Injury or Illness

Select if the incident resulted in injury or illness and you want to track injury or illness data on the Injury or Illness pages.

When you select this check box, enter an employee ID in the Reported to EmplID (reported to employee ID) field on the Notification page before saving the incident in the system.

For BC WCB reports, select this check box if you are reporting an outcome of reported only, health care only, short-term disability, or fatality. If you are reporting an outcome of dangerous occurrences, ensure that this check box is clear.

Investigated

Select this check box if this incident is investigated.

Note. (DEU) German laws and insurers require that employers track and report detailed occupational illness data. The legal procedures for handling and reporting these illnesses differ from those that regulate occupational accidents, so all illnesses involving the German operations are tracked using the Illness Tracking (HS_ILLNESS_GER) component.

(CAN) Canada

The following information is specific to users who want to file incident reports electronically with the BC WCB. Note that the Contact ID, Class/Subclass, and Business Type fields are required for all incident outcomes.

Warning! To activate all warnings, you must set the Regulatory Region for the incident to CANBC. Even the creation of the extract file does not work without this because it is designed to focus on British Columbia incidents only.

Outcome

The value that appears in this field is derived from the most severe injury outcome that you enter on the Injury Details page.

For incidents with a CANBC regulatory region, the Outcome field is activated based upon a relationship between the incident outcome here and the injury outcome. If the Resulted in Injury or Illness check box is selected, the system verifies that an injury is entered before you save the incident.

When you save the incident, the system associates an incident outcome with each injury outcome. For example, if only one person is injured, the system populates the Outcome field with the same value as the injury outcome. If more than one person is injured, the most severe injury outcome defines the incident outcome.

Possible values for the Outcome field are:

Reported Only: An injury occurred but no medical attention is sought nor is time lost.

Healthcare Only: The injured person visited a health-care practitioner, but no time loss beyond the day of injury occurred. In some WCB jurisdictions, this is also known as medical aid.

Short Term Disability: The injured worker is off work beyond the day of the injury. In some WCB jurisdictions, this is also known as wage loss.

Fatal: A fatal injury.

Dangerous Occurrence: No injuries or injury outcomes are involved.

Click to jump to parent topic(MEX) Defining Mixed Committees for Mexico

This section provides an overview of mixed committees for health and safety and discusses how to define mixed committees.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Mixed Committees for Health and Safety

In Mexican companies, a mixed committee, Comisión Mixta de Seguridad e Higiene, is formed to oversee health and safety processes and investigate work-related accidents. A similar mixed committee, Comisión Mixta de Capacitación, is formed to oversee the training and development process for employees.

The mixed committee is made up of an equal number of employee and employer representatives and is selected annually. When the committee is formed, the group defines its working objectives, functions, and mechanisms.

The mixed committee for health and safety investigates the causes of work-related accidents, reviews legal decisions, registers violations of the legal decisions, and recommends health and safety preventative measures.

You can enter the information for a health and safety mixed committee on the Mixed Committee page.

After you define the details for a health and safety mixed committee, there is an additional step. If a safety incident occurs on the job, record it on the Incident Details page.

Defining Training Legal Requirements

There are specific legal forms for the formation of the mixed committee. The Department of Labor (STPS) can audit all the information that is related to the mixed committee and its formation (STPS Form DC-1).

Submit the committee formation and definition of the training plan to the STPS through Form DC-2.

After training is complete, the company can issue labor ability certificates to employees. Each employee who completes a course or event receives a certificate (STPS Form DC-3) and a copy is sent to the STPS.

You can now generate all the STPS reports that are used to track employee training.
