What to report: incidents, hazards and near misses

The AUT event notification form can be used:

If you have an injury or illness caused 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.
