What to report: incidents, hazards and near misses
The AUT event notification form can be used:
- If you have an injury or illness caused by or as a result of your study at AUT, like a fall on a slippery surface or a cut while using equipment
- To tell us about a hazardous situation like:
- Broken furniture or glass
- Faulty equipment
- A blocked emergency exit
An event notification report serves as a record in case there are complications later, for example, delayed health effects.
