Accident Reporting and Recording
Definition Accidents
An accident is often described as a chance event or an unintentional act.
This description is not acceptable as accidents do not ‘just happen’,
they do not ‘come out of the Blue’, they are caused!
A better definition of an accident is therefore:
An accident is an event causing injury or damage that
could have been avoided by following correct
methods and procedures.
