Accident Investigating and Reporting:

All Injuries to students, visitors and employees must be reported and investigated within 24 hours of accident occurrence. The results of the investigation must be documented on the Injury/Accident Investigation Report. All investigation reports must be sent immediately to the Office of Environmental Health & Safety and the Office of Risk Management & Insurance Services. For general guidelines on how to investigate an accident refer to Safety Alert 04-14.

A copy of the Injury/Accident Investigation Report for employee injuries must be maintained in a confidential file separate from personnel files at your location to comply with OSHA requirements to investigate accidents. No copies of investigations of visitor or student injuries are to be retained at your location.

Refer all requests for copies of an investigation to the Office of General Counsel at Beaudry. Copies of investigations are never released to employees, students, parents or attorneys without permission from the Office of General Counsel.


For questions or assistance, please contact your District Safety Officer at (213) 241-3199.
