Supervisor's Mishap Report of Illness/Injury
Mishaps that result in occupational injuries, illnesses or deaths to personnel degrade operational readiness and increase operation costs. Investigations of mishaps to identify causes and preventive actions, as well as establishing accurate record keeping, are essential to the success of the Navy Occupational Safety and Health (NAVOSH) Program. Mishap investigations aimed at determining how and why the event occurred are necessary to prevent future occurrence of similar events. Accurate records are necessary to establish trends, conduct analyses, and to assess the effectiveness of the overall NAVOSH Program.
The regulatory driver for reporting an Injury/Illness is OPNAVINST 5100.23 (series), chapter 14 and OPNAVINST 5102.1D.
To comply, employees and supervisors shall follow the requirements below:
EMPLOYEES: Employees shall report immediately to their supervisor any occupational injury or illness.
SUPERVISORS: The Supervisor shall complete their portion of the Dispensary Permit and provide it to all civilians who need treatment. Employees shall not visit the clinic without a completed permit, unless emergency medical care is necessary.
The Naval Safety Center has revised mishap-reporting requirements to include all injuries and illnesses, including military off-duty and motor vehicle injuries, which prevent personnel from performing scheduled duty beyond the day or shift of injury or onset of illness. CNIC requires that mishap reports for CNRMA Commands be entered into the Enterprise Safety Application Management System (ESAMS) , which is used to forward them to the Naval Safety Center within 48 hours from the date of injury. This process will update the Naval Safety Center's Web Based Safety System (WESS) Questions should be directed to your Safety Office. Commands not supported by the Safety Office should follow procedures from their chain of command.
If you do not have access to ESAMS, please fill out the blank Mishap Report. This blank Mishap Report is also useful in organizing your mishap data prior to logging the mishap into ESAMS (it follows the ESAMS IIRTS Report format).
The supervisor shall submit through ESAMS a report within 48 hours of an injury or illness.
