Quick reporting is important because:

• It makes sure the accident is officially recorded in the company’s accident book.

• It helps secure evidence such as witness details or CCTV footage before it is lost.

•  It shows you acted promptly, which strengthens any future compensation claim.

If an injury is not reported quickly, it may raise questions about how and when it happened. Acting early protects your health, your rights, and your chances of making a successful workplace injury claim.
