Report an Accident

When to Complete the Accident/Incident Report

• When an employee has a work related accident or incident the Supervisor along with the employee shall complete the Accident/Incident Form, which is found in the Accident/Incident Envelope.

   

• If the employee requires first aid, the Accident/Incident form is the only required document to be forwarded to the Office of Health & Safety.

   

• All Documents must be forwarded to the Office of Health & Safety within 24 hours of the accident/incident. They may be faxed to 519-971-3671, but the originals must be sent through inter-university mail.

When an Employee requires Medical Attention Updated

• If the employee is initially seeking medical attention they must ask the Health Care Provider for page three of the Form 8. The Form 8 is the Health Professional’s report of injury that is sent to the WSIB. Page 3 of the new Form 8 replaces the initial Functional Abilities Form (FAF) normally requested at time of Injury. The employee must return the completed page 3 of the Form 8 to their Supervisor as soon as practicable to ensure a successful early and safe return to work.
   
• All Documents must be forwarded to the Office of Health & Safety within 24 hours of the accident/incident. They may be faxed to 519-971-3671, but the originals must be sent through inter-university mail.
