FOI Request - Workplace Injury

Request 101002595109

Please provide me the following information with regards to the way in which the council records workplace incidents in which a member of staff is injured.

1. Regarding this system, please tells me – broken down month-by-month for the last 24 full calendar months – how many such incidents were recorded across all council premises and at which locations were these recorded?

2. Additionally, please provide a separate monthly breakdown detailing the level of injury – minor, severe, etc. (or whichever categories are used by your reporting system) and what these levels approximate to (e.g. severe means a broken bone) .

Please find the requested information attached here. 

The levels of injury are taken from the RIDDOR form used by HSE to report incidents. Further information can be found here.
