Reporting Accidents and Incidents

All accidents and other incidents sustained by staff as part of their contract of work with Ealing Music Service (EMS) or by members of the public while engaging with an EMS activity or event must be reported to the council’s central incident reporting system for investigation and action as appropriate.

This includes accidents and incidents that occur at home or at someone else’s premises whilst performing duties for work

In the first instance, notify your Line Manager and Head of Service immediately if possible and otherwise within 24 hours.

Your Line Manager or Head of Service will agree with you which of you will report the accident/incident, depending on who is best placed to do so (you may request your Line Manager to do this), and whether you have access to the council’s incident reporting portal.
