UA creates new reporting site for accidents, incidents

April 14, 2015

University Relations

Incident reporting has now been standardized throughout the University of Alaska system. Effective immediately, incidents at UAF should be reported through the new online Origami Risk program at http://www.uaf.edu/safety/occupational-safety/accident-reporting/.

Reports should be filed on injury or non-injury incidents involving UA employees (including student employees) and non-employees (including students). Damage to UA and non-UA vehicles and property should also be reported. Unsafe conditions can also be reported via the site.

All reported incidents must be entered into Origami Risk. Paper or electronic accident/incident reports should no longer be submitted to UAF Environmental, Health, Safety, and Risk Management.

Instructions on how to use the new reporting program are provided at the link above. In an emergency, do not fill out the form; call 911.

With the new online process, employees no longer must complete the two additional workers' compensation forms when an incident with injury results in medical attention.

Any questions regarding the new Origami Risk reporting procedure can be directed to Kim Knudsen or Gary Beaudette, EHSRM safety officers, at 474-5413. Facilities Services employees should contact Bob Miller at 474-5949.
