You must always report all accidents that occur during teaching and practical classes (including project work), to your academic supervisor as soon as possible, and make sure an incident form is filled in. This includes all incidents, no matter how minor, as well as incidents that happen off campus, when you are undertaking an activity sanctioned by the University e.g. field trips.
Please also report any incident which could have caused serious injury or damage, but did not i.e. 'near misses', as well as hazards or faulty equipment. The University has an online incident reporting system - access the form.
If the accident takes place on the University premises - other than during a teaching or practical class - you should ensure you report it to a suitable member of the University's staff e.g. School or Hall office, Library or catering supervisors, etc. Also ensure that you inform your academic supervisor as soon as possible.
