Construction Incident Report: What Is It?

A Construction Incident Report refers to a written statement prepared to share the details of an unforeseen event that occurred while construction work was carried out.

Alternate Name:

• Construction Accident Report.

If you were at a construction site when an injury or fatal accident occurred or there was significant damage to anyone's property, you must fill out a document that explains what happened, what measures have been taken to resolve the issue, and who was involved in the situation whether workers or bystanders were at fault or harmed.

Usually completed by the person responsible for safety on a construction site (it can be a project manager, safety officer, or an individual tasked with overseeing the construction on a particular day), this instrument is needed to investigate the unfortunate events that harmed people and property; it will also be helpful to authorities if illegal actions were committed.

List the names of individuals involved in the incident and add their contact details, specify when and where the events occurred, describe the accident in your own words, elaborate on injuries, fatalities, and harm to property if necessary, confirm the names of witnesses that can prove the claims you put in writing, indicate whether you contacted authorities and medical services, record the arrangements made to lessen the damage and prevent the repetition of the incident, and certify the papers by signing and dating them.
