Advice on health and safety at work and home is available from Ashfield District Council's Health & Housing Services officers.

The Council's Health & Housing Services officers regularly inspect shops and offices to make sure they provide a safe and healthy environment for employees and the general public. These officers also investigate workplace accidents.

RIDDOR

RIDDOR stands for the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995.

Reporting accidents and ill health at work is a legal requirement. The information enables the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and local authorities to identify where and how risks arise and to investigate serious accidents.

The quickest and easiest way to report an incident is to call the Incident Contact Centre with no need to fill in a report form. Just call 0845 300 99 23 (Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5pm) and speak to an ICC Operator who will complete a report form over the phone. You will be sent a copy for your records.

Incident report forms are also available from the RIDDOR website, and may be submitted online, by email or by post.
