Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013
Workplace safety is a legal and moral responsibility for employers and organisations across the United Kingdom. When serious incidents occur in the workplace, they must be reported to the appropriate authorities so that risks can be understood, monitored, and prevented in the future.
The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013 (RIDDOR) requires employers, self-employed people, and those in control of work premises to report certain workplace incidents to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
RIDDOR helps regulators identify trends in workplace accidents, investigate serious incidents, and ensure that organisations comply with health and safety legislation.
This course provides a clear and practical introduction to RIDDOR. Learners will gain an understanding of the legal requirements, the types of incidents that must be reported, and the procedures organisations should follow when reporting workplace incidents.
The training also explains how RIDDOR reporting fits within wider workplace safety responsibilities under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and associated regulations.
By completing this course, learners will understand when incidents must be reported, how reporting works, and how organisations can ensure compliance with UK health and safety legislation.
