Can anyone tell me what the penalty would be for not reporting as required under Riddor 95?

Hi John
I recall reading not that long ago of a company fined for failing to report and accident.
I can't remember if was this week or last but the fine was around £4,000 and costs (I think)
Maybe others will be able to back this up.
Regards

Depends under what circumstances:
Contravention of any health and safety regulation up to £5000 - summary conviction or unlimited fine on indictment.
If served with an improvement notice (i.e. unsuitable accident reporting system etc) and you breach the Notice then up to £20,000 and/or 6 months impisonment summarily or unlimited and/or 2 years impisonment on indictment for contravention of notice PLUS above fine for breach of RIDDOR.
Plus bad publicity etc,etc,etc
Best not to break the law!
