A must-have accident report book required by law in all UK workplaces. Simple and easy to complete, record all workplace accidents and incidents in one place. Contains 40 report forms designed to be removed and securely stored to comply with GDPR and HSE regulations.
This Accident Report Book is a practical tool for meeting workplace health and safety requirements in the UK. It supports legal obligations under RIDDOR and the Social Security (Claims and Payments) Regulations of 1979, helping businesses record and store details of any work-related incidents that result in injury. Suitable for all UK workplaces—and legally required in those with more than ten employees—the book includes 40 perforated pages for easy removal and secure storage in line with GDPR and HSE standards.
Recording incidents thoroughly helps ensure the correct information is on hand should it be needed later. Even seemingly minor injuries can develop into more serious issues, so it’s best practice to log all workplace accidents as they happen. Using a purpose-built report book makes this process simpler, keeps you legally compliant, and helps maintain oversight of potential risks across your business.

It is also suitable for smaller businesses aiming to follow best practice in health and safety management, ensuring that all incidents—no matter how minor—are properly recorded. Employers, health and safety officers, and site managers can use this book to meet their legal obligations and support internal risk assessments.
The book is especially useful in environments where physical record keeping is preferred, and where GDPR compliance is essential when handling personal information.
