This processing activity involves the internal recording and retention of minor workplace incidents or near-misses that do not meet the threshold for statutory reporting under RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013), but are maintained for purposes of health and safety monitoring, occupational health follow-up, and risk prevention.
The register helps employers and safety professionals identify trends, improve workplace safety, and monitor recurrent minor injuries. It may also be used in liaison with occupational health services for preventive interventions or ergonomic assessments.
This processing is typically conducted by the Health and Safety team or designated officers within the employer organisation and may involve consultation with employee representatives or health professionals.
