What is a notifiable event?

You need to notify us of any serious injury, illness, or incident that happens to a person or people carrying out work, or as a result of work that your business or organisation is responsible for. This is a requirement under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA).

Notify WorkSafe will guide you through a series of questions to help you to provide all the information we need.

If you're unsure of what needs to be notified, read What events need to be notified?
