The First Report and the Accident or Incident Investigation Report
What is the difference?
The First Report is available on the counties' internal computer system or a copy can be obtained from the Clerk and Recorder's Office. The
First Report is filled out when there is an accident involving an employee.  This is the paperwork sent to MACo in case it is needed for Workman’s Comp and to pay medical expenses if necessary.  The First Report is filed with the Clerk and Recorder's office. If no treatment is needed the information on the First Report will not be tallied in with losses by MACo.

The Accident or Incident Investigation Report is an important safety tool for county and safety department use to help to mitigate any further incidents.  An investigation should be done regardless of injury or damage to equipment in order to assess what may have contributed to the incident.  A copy of this form is in the Employee Safety Manual or from your supervisor.  In addition to accidents, an incident report is filled out when there is a “near miss.” This would be something that has the potential to cause a problem. 

The incident or accident report is then used to write a report based on the information that was gathered.  An important step in the investigation is to take photographs as soon as is possible so the conditions and location of the incident are recorded. The supervisor is responsible for the Accident or Incident Investigation Report, which will be reviewed by the Safety Committee.
