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

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.
