Program Participant / Volunteer Injury Reporting (Non-Employee)

This information is related to incident/injury reporting for non-employees (e.g. volunteers, visitors, participants, etc.)
 
IMPORTANT:  In the event of an injury, the injured individual should obtain first aid as needed and notify the immediate supervisor of the incident as soon as practicable.
 
The “Program Participant Incident/Injury Report” should be completed for every incident/injury of a non-employee (volunteer, visitor, participant, etc.), preferably within 24 hours of the incident/injury. Included in this report is Section 3: Contributing Factors or Conditions on the “Employee Accident Form.” Even though the individual is not an employee, the information in Section 3 is important for the risk management department to conduct a root cause analysis.
 
Submit a copy of the completed forms to The Department of Risk Management and Insurance: rodeman.5@osu.edu and your CFAES safety contact. (listed below)
 
If you have additional questions related to an incident, please contact:

Terry Rodeman – Insurance Administrator at 614-247-8840 or rodeman.5@osu.edu

 
Reminder: If the incident involves a University employee, please use the Ohio State Employee Accident Report and report the incident to:
