The 2016 Reporting Regulations: the three day rule, dangerous occurrences, fatalities, how to report online, deadlines, records and who reports for the self employed and the public.
Employers in Ireland must report certain workplace accidents and dangerous occurrences to the Health and Safety Authority under the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work (Reporting of Accidents and Dangerous Occurrences) Regulations 2016. The rules are simple once you know the thresholds, and the report is made online. Failing to report is an offence and leaves a gap in the records that matters if a claim follows.

Let's be honest with you. The internet is full of scam training websites and reviews no real customer wrote. That's why we do the opposite. Every review we have comes from a real person who took a real course with us. No fakes. No hidden feedback. They are all on Google Maps, where we can't edit or rewrite them. Be especially careful with scam websites showing reviews that appear to come from platforms such as Reviews.io. Reviews displayed on their own website may be fake, because the website owner can add, edit or fabricate them directly in the site code. Always verify the business on Google Maps instead. Today, we hold the No.1 spot across Ireland, with more real reviews than any other health and safety training company, built on 30 years of real work at honest prices. You don't have to take our word for it. Just tap the Verify us on Google button below and read every review.

An accident at work must be reported to the HSA when it prevents an employee from doing their normal work for more than three consecutive days, excluding the day of the accident but including non working days.
Online through the HSA reporting system within ten working days, or immediately by telephone for a fatality followed by the written report.
Only the dangerous occurrences listed in Schedule 1 of the 2016 Regulations. Other near misses should still be recorded and investigated internally.

The health and safety course at Irish HACCP fits Ireland working life perfectly. From Dublin's construction cranes and Cork's pharma plants to Galway's medtech campuses, Limerick's manufacturing belt and the farms, hotels, warehouses and hospitals in every county between, Irish workplaces run on certified, compliant staff. Instead of losing a day to a classroom, learners in Ireland complete the full accredited training online, in about 1-2 hours, from home or straight from the workplace.
Local employers know exactly what they are looking at when your certificate arrives: CPD Certified, RoSPA approved, HSA aligned training from a provider used by businesses across every county in Ireland. The unique verification code on every certificate makes checks instant, whether you work in Dublin, Cork or Galway.
For businesses, the free Employer Dashboard turns a team rollout into one afternoon of work: bulk registration, live progress and every health and safety certificate in one clean screen, with automatic volume discounts applied at checkout.
Many providers sell a safety induction as a deck of text slides. This course is built from real training videos, filmed scenarios and clear visuals: the cost of a hazard nobody reported, the right way to lift, what to do when the fire alarm sounds.
The syllabus tracks exactly what the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 expects an induction to deliver: six modules that finish with you able to spot hazards, report them properly and work safely every day.
The result is a health and safety course employers recognise as genuine training, backed by a certificate they trust on sight.
Shift patterns leave no room for fixed course dates. Every lesson streams on any device, every pause saves your place, and nothing needs installing.
Start the safety training after work, continue on a break and finish on a day off. Progress syncs across every device automatically, so split shift and weekend workers get exactly the same experience.
No classroom day, no travel, no waiting list: enrol now, certify today, start tomorrow.
Pass the assessment and the digital Health and Safety Certificate is generated on the spot, aligned with Irish safety law and recognised across Ireland, the UK and Europe.
It lives permanently in your account for re-download during audits, job applications and insurance renewals, and its unique verification code lets any employer confirm it instantly.
For job seekers, the certificate opens doors in every industry, because every Irish employer needs safety trained staff.
Every module comes from licensed, Chartered (CMIOSH) consultants who know exactly what the HSA expects from workplace safety training.
That experience shows: hazard reporting that actually gets things fixed, risk assessments explained in plain words, manual handling technique filmed properly and emergency response that works under pressure.
Content is re-reviewed against the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 and current HSA guidance, so the course never drifts out of date.
A classroom induction day means lost shifts, travel and cover costs. The online health and safety course removes all of it.
Employees certify from home or the workplace, starting the moment you enrol them, and owners can show an inspector the complete training record in seconds.
Pricing is honest: one figure covers all 6 modules, unlimited retakes and the instant Health and Safety Certificate. No add ons, ever.
The free Employer Dashboard registers staff in bulk, assigns the health and safety course to each person, shows live progress and stores every certificate in one clean screen, exactly what a safety audit wants to see.
Volume discounts apply automatically at checkout, and expiry reminders arrive before anyone lapses, which matters with staff turnover in hospitality and retail.
Restaurants, cafes, hotels, shops, offices and warehouses across Ireland run their safety inductions through us year after year.
Everyone who works: the Safety, Health and Welfare at Work Act 2005 requires every employer to provide the information, instruction and training needed to work safely, and every employee to follow it.
In practice, the people certifying with us are kitchen and restaurant teams, retail and hospitality staff, office workers, construction and trades, warehouse operatives, carers and teachers, plus every new starter before day one.
For food businesses it pairs naturally with HACCP training: one keeps the food safe, the other keeps your people safe.
The 2016 Reporting Regulations: the three day rule, dangerous occurrences, fatalities, how to report online, deadlines, records and who reports for the self employed and the public.
An accident at work causing the death of an employee. An accident at work causing an employee to be unable to carry out their normal work for more than three consecutive days, not counting the day of the accident but including weekends and rest days. An accident to a person who is not an employee, caused by the work activity, that requires treatment by a registered medical practitioner or admission to hospital. The dangerous occurrences listed in Schedule 1 of the Regulations, such as scaffold collapse, the failure of lifting equipment, an unintended explosion or fire, or a release of a substance that could cause serious injury, whether or not anyone was hurt.
Fatalities are reported to the HSA immediately by telephone and followed by a written report; the scene is left undisturbed until the HSA and the Garda allow otherwise. Other reportable accidents and dangerous occurrences are reported within ten working days of the event, using the HSA online reporting system. Where the absence only becomes more than three days after the fact, the ten days run from when the employer learns the threshold has been passed.
The employer, for employees. The self employed person, for themselves, or a family member or another person where they cannot. The person in control of the workplace, for members of the public and for people who are not their employees. Where an employee is placed by an agency, the employer who directs the work reports.
Keep a record of every reported accident and dangerous occurrence for ten years, along with the internal accident report and the investigation findings. Investigate every accident, and near misses, to find the causes and update the risk assessment and safety statement. Accident records are also what insurers, solicitors and the Personal Injuries Assessment Board will ask for.
Absence of more than three consecutive days, weekends included, day of accident excluded.
The deadline for the online report; fatalities immediately by phone.
Schedule 1 events reported even when nobody is injured.
Accident causes, reporting and near miss culture are part of the accredited Health and Safety Course for every employee. Train online and certify today.
