Price Match

An accident record book provides a simple, structured way for catering operators and kitchen managers to log workplace incidents, near-misses, and injuries as they occur. Maintaining an accurate written record is a legal requirement under RIDDOR and general health and safety legislation, and having a dedicated book on hand ensures entries are made consistently rather than relying on informal notes or memory.

In a busy kitchen environment, incidents can range from minor cuts and slips to more significant injuries. Recording each event at the time — including the circumstances, any witnesses, and the action taken — creates a reliable paper trail that protects both the business and its staff. It also helps identify recurring hazards so management can act before a pattern becomes a more serious problem.

  • Prompts consistent recording of incidents, near-misses, and injuries
  • Supports compliance with workplace health and safety legislation
  • Helps identify recurring hazards over time
  • Provides a clear paper trail for insurance or enforcement purposes
  • Straightforward format suitable for kitchen supervisors and managers

This is a straightforward paper-based solution well suited to smaller catering operations, cafés, pub kitchens, and food service sites that need a reliable, low-cost way to meet their recording obligations without relying on digital systems. Larger multi-site operators may find a more comprehensive health and safety management system better suited to their needs.

If you have questions about workplace safety compliance requirements or what documentation your kitchen operation should be maintaining, we're happy to point you in the right direction.

Frequently asked questions

Is a paper accident record book a legal requirement for catering businesses?

Employers are legally required to record workplace accidents and certain incidents under RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations). A dedicated accident book is the most straightforward way to meet this obligation and provides a clear record should an incident ever be queried by an enforcement authority or insurer.

How long should completed accident records be kept?

As a general guide, accident records should be retained for at least three years from the date of the entry, and longer for incidents involving young persons. It is worth seeking current guidance from the Health and Safety Executive or your insurer, as retention requirements can vary depending on the nature of the incident.

Is this book suitable for a multi-site catering operation?

A single accident record book is well suited to individual kitchen sites. For businesses operating across multiple locations, it is common practice to keep a separate book at each site so that records remain with the relevant premises. Larger operations managing high incident volumes may benefit from a more structured health and safety management system.
