Posted By Dr. D. D. Radadiya Hello! All Members, I need to know the incident/accident reporting practices in your organization for the HSE Performance Review. Kindly help me in providing information for the following cases how your organization is reporting incident/accident statistics for HSE performance review: 1. An employee is injured due to accident while travelling from home to work place to attend duty. 2. An employee is injured due to accident while traveling from work place to home after completing his work. 3. An employee is injured due to an accident while travelling from shoping to home, enroute from work place to home, after completing the work. Please note that we have company provided transportation and some employees are using thier own private transportation. I would like to know how these cases are treated in your compny for HSE Performance reporting and also for Insurance point of view. Kindly also mention whether: - these accidents are treated as work related accidents. - are these reported for HSE Performance review to Management? - are these delt sepeartely for Insurance purpose only? If you need further information, pl. send me an e-mail on radadiya@rediffmail.com I would appreciate your prompt response as I have to put up a case to the Management for making policy for the above cases.

Posted By steven bentham An accident occuring when you are travelling to work is not normally reportable to HSE. All road traffic accidents are Police matters and there is no need to duplicate reporting. You may have employees who are requried to travel to different work places direct from their own homes. Your own internal safety performance measures may need to extend to these people if they are injured travelling between workplaces.

Posted By Heather Aston If all these examples involve travel to or from the normal place of work then none of them would appear in statistics (HSE or company) as they did not happen at work. If travelling to/from a place other than normal place of work, I would expect a report (internal) but would not count the accident/incident in our normal "works' accident" statistics. Insurers would only be interested if a company owned/leased and therefore company-insured vehicle was involved. In such a case, the employee would be expected to report the accident/incident internally. Heather
