Product Information

Road traffic accidents involving school vehicles while they are travelling on the public highway are investigated by the police and not reportable under RIDDOR. Near misses may seem trivial but they are a valuable source of information. Taking time to review the underlying causes is likely to reduce risk, improve health and safety, and save you time and money in the long run. The HSE defines a near miss as ‘an event not causing harm, but has the potential to cause injury or ill health’ This can include dangerous occurrences that are reportable, as defined in the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013 (RIDDOR).

Gas conveyors, fillers, importers or suppliers also have a duty to report under RIDDOR, if they have learnt of gas supplied by themselves causing death, unconsciousness or hospital treatment. Gas engineers, or their employers, must provide details of any gas fittings that they consider to be dangerous to the extent of causing death, unconsciousness or hospital treatment.
