Accident reporting - what do you need to do??

[Marcellus]

My eldest is at college and they've been covering Health and Safety and and accidents at work.

She's saying that if there is an accident in a salon then the salon must report the accident to the council within 24hours.

Is this true??

When I was in manufacturing we had to record it, investigate it, implement corrective actions and make all our records available for inspection....... is this not the case anymore or is it different for different industries?
