Report Serious Incident or Death

The Labor Code requires that every employer must immediately report by telephone or email any serious injury, illness or death of an employee occurring in a place of employment or in connection with any employment to the nearest Cal/OSHA district office. ​

Cal/OSHA recommends telephonic reporting within 24 hours of the incident. Telephonic and email reporting instructions are available at the Cal/OSHA website.
