CLARIFICATION FROM HSE REGARDING REPORTING VOLUNTEER ACCIDENTS TO RIDDOR:
Further to the question raised at the last meeting, we have had the following clarification directly from the HSE:
"For the purposes of reporting under RIDDOR a worker would be a person under a contract of employment. As this is unlikely to be the case for most volunteers they should be classed as members of the public when it comes to reporting."
