Accident And Incident Data - 2015-2016

This dataset includes the following fields for 2015/2016: Reference (unique reference number); Incident Date; Accident Type; Time Lost. Please note: during 2015, the Health & Safety reporting system was changed. Incidents now have unique identifiers that are not date-related, and also the actual number of days lost has been re-introduced. The datasets were drawn from the adverse incident recording system in operation at the time. The systems have been developed and enhanced over time to allow for greater internal analysis and comparisons. As part of its legal duties APHA records all incidents where a person has been harmed during their work or whilst attending APHA premises. In addition, the Agency has been promoting the reporting of any adverse incidents generally known as near misses or hazard observations, which is shown in the increased volume of reports. Please note: Some of the data has been edited. Attribution statement: ©Crown Copyright, APHA 2016
