What's inside this template

Steps

  • Ensure scene is safe

    Don’t become the next victim. Check for ongoing hazards (electrical, chemical, falling objects). Lock out / isolate before approaching.

  • Provide first aid

    Trained first-aider provides care within scope (bleeding control, AED, splinting). Keep the injured person calm and conscious if possible.

  • Decide: 911 or self-transport

    Call 911 for: unconsciousness, severe bleeding, breathing difficulty, possible head/neck/back injury, electrical/chemical exposure. Otherwise transport to occ-med clinic.

  • Preserve the scene

    Photograph the scene before anything is moved. Mark off the area. Don’t clean up until safety has documented. Save involved equipment for inspection.

  • Identify witnesses

    Get names and contact info of anyone who saw the incident. Capture initial statements while memory is fresh. Don’t coach or lead witness accounts.

  • File incident report

    Complete internal incident report within 24 hours. Include facts, photos, witness names, root cause analysis.

  • OSHA 300/301 evaluation

    If injury required medical treatment beyond first aid, days away from work, restricted duty, or loss of consciousness, log on OSHA 300. File 301 within 7 days.
