Who Should Report A Work Accident And Within What Period?
The employer must notify the law enforcement authorities immediately and the Institution within 3 working days after the accident at the latest. However, this period starts from the date of learning of the work accident if the work accident occurs in places outside the control of the employer. If the notification is not made by the employer, it must be fulfilled by the injured worker.
If students, apprentices or higher education trainees undergoing vocational training at workplaces have an occupational accident, the notification shall be made immediately by the employers of the workplace where they are undergoing training or internship to the competent law enforcement authorities in the place where the accident occurred and to the Institution within three working days after the accident at the latest.
