Incident Repository Overview

The Incident Repository is a digital logbook where your safety team documents and tracks all safety-related events. It replaces manual spreadsheets and scattered files with a centralized, searchable database.

Purpose

The Incident Repository exists to:

  • Preserve institutional knowledge — Incidents are recorded and retained, not lost to memory.
  • Enable pattern recognition — Search past incidents to identify recurring issues.
  • Support accountability — Document who, what, when, and follow-up actions.
  • Facilitate LEO coordination — Provide records for law enforcement if needed.

What Gets Recorded

Typical incidents include:

  • Medical emergencies
  • Behavioral disturbances
  • Trespasser encounters
  • Criminal Trespass Warnings (CTW)
  • Property or safety hazards
  • Near-misses and observations

[!NOTE] Not every event requires a formal incident report. Use your organization’s guidelines to determine when documentation is needed.
