All employers must report to us:

• serious personal injuries
• deaths
• injuries in connection with work which affect several employees at the same time
• incidents which resulted in serious danger to life or health.

Report what has happened as soon as possible, preferably on the same day.

If you, as an employer, fail to report a serious event, you may be ordered by a court to pay a fine under Chapter 8, Section 2, of the Work Enviroment Act.

3. We will contact you if we require further information.
   We read all reports and assess whether we should

     If we do not contact you or your organisation within three weeks, we have normally decided to take no action.
