What To Do After an Accident at Work: A Step-by-Step Guide
Prioritize Safety
Immediately after a workplace accident, it's important that you and other coworkers make sure the area remains safe for other employees. Assess the immediate threats first, and then move away from any lingering dangers. Keep in mind that your health is of vital importance.
Seek First Aid
Call for assistance as soon as you or any other accident victims need emergency medical care after your workplace incident.
If your employer has staff to assist with medical emergencies, contact them immediately. If not, notify your supervisor, safety manager, or human resources representative immediately and ask them to provide medical assistance.
