In order to streamline processes and provide a more accessible system, the WVU Environmental Health and Safety team has transitioned its Employee Injury/Incident Report form online.
Beginning immediately, all injury/incident reports should be submitted online through Campus Optics.
Previously, employees completed a fillable PDF or printed form and submitted it by email to the EHS account.
It is critical that employees submit a report in case of an injury/incident and that they do so within 24 hours of the injury/incident.
The new reporting system is accessible by phone or computer and allows reports to be submitted directly to both EHS and Risk Management.
The move to a digital reporting form is intended to improve and streamline current processes, making it easier to use and encouraging earlier reporting of incidents.
This change will help ensure faster response times and better tracking of workplace safety concerns.
For any questions about the form or generally reporting injuries/incidents, please contact the EHS team at EHSsafety@mail.wvu.edu.
