If a workplace incident occurs, your first step is always to help injured workers find the medical attention they require. This may involve administering first aid and/or transporting them to the closest medical facilities (if necessary). After workers have received medical assistance, you must report the incident to the WSCC within three business days of the incident.
Please note that dangerous occurrences and fatalities must be reported through our 24 hour reporting line at 1-800-661-0792 as soon as reasonably possible For more information see our webpage on your reporting requirements.
Employer's Report of Incident
Report an incident, injury, fatality, or dangerous occurrence through the Employer’s Report of Incident e-Service on WSCC Connect. The report consists of two sections: First, you will complete the Incident Section and if you have indicated there was an injury or fatality, the e-Service will advance you to the Injury and Fatality Section to report.
Employers must submit the fully-completed Incident Report within three business days, or will incur penalties as listed in the Workers’ Compensation Acts. Please note that to report an accident causing serious bodily injury or a dangerous occurrence, you must call the 24-hour Incident Reporting line at 1-800-661-0792 as soon as is reasonably possible and complete and submit the Incident Report within three business days.
