Employers are required to report and investigate all serious incidents and accidents in the workplace. You must report a serious injury or death of a worker to WorkSafeBC under the Workers Compensation Act.
What do you need to report to WorkSafeBC?
Serious injuries or death of a worker
Injuries requiring medical treatment beyond basic first aid
Incidents where there was a potential for serious injury, even when no injury occurred
WorkSafeBC has developed an employer incident investigation report (EIIR) template you can use to create all four reports that may be required following an incident in your workplace.
