How to Use a Report Work Incident Template

If you’ve experienced a work-related incident, it’s important to report it promptly to ensure that the proper action is taken. Here are four simple steps to follow when preparing a report:

1. Create a document

Create a document in ClickUp with all the necessary information needed to file a report. This should include the date and time of the incident, a description of the incident, and the names of any other individuals involved.

Use a Doc in ClickUp to record all the details of the incident.

2. Provide evidence

Gather any evidence you may have pertaining to the incident, such as photos, videos, or eyewitness accounts. Make sure to include any relevant documents or reports that may have been prepared in response to the incident.

Create tasks in ClickUp to collect and organize evidence related to the incident.

3. Submit the report

Submit the completed report to the appropriate person or department. Depending on the type of incident and the severity of the case, this could be your supervisor, HR department, or a government agency.

Use Automations in ClickUp to make sure the report is sent to the right person or department.

4. Follow up

Once you’ve submitted the report, follow up with the person or department to ensure that the incident is being addressed. Depending on the situation, you may need to provide additional information or documents.

Create a recurring task in ClickUp to check in on the progress of the incident and make sure that it's being addressed.
