Non NSC Recordable (Not on the NSC Monthly Report: First Aid Cases, with or without treatment)
All First Aid Cases (FAC) must be reported in the Lotus Notes Injury/Illness Database and investigated appropriately. Only those with serious potential are widely communicated by e-mail to aid other sites in preventing similar situations. We do not manage and report FAC’s with the same vigor as Recordables because we want to encourage maximum site reporting of FAC’s to assist with injury prevention. Experience indicates that management pressure to reduce FAC’s will more likely result in under-reporting than in actual performance improvement.
