Report Writing

  • Write the report as soon after the incident as possible
    • Always include Time, Date & Place
  • The Report MUST be factual
  • Do not use correction fluid - simply put a line through the mistake
  • Always assume the reader knows nothing of the incident
  • Never use jargon or slang
  • Record details of any witnesses on the incident form
  • If it will help - Draw a map
  • If you need more space - get some more paper
