Accident/Incident Reporting

If an incident results in injury, property damage or loss (or if the trip leader feels that an injury or property damage/loss situation could possibly be claimed at some later time), the following process should be followed:

Administer appropriate incident management procedures

Trip leaders will have the responsibility of carrying out or delegating whatever actions are necessary to manage the situation until the victim has been turned over to the appropriate rescue, health care or other authorities. Your incident report will deal with the events up to that point.

Complete an incident report

The trip leader or other designated individual must contact the Section Chair and that person would contact the Executive Director at the Alpine Club of Canada’s National Office. This must be done as soon as possible after the incident occurs.

In addition, a complete, written incident report must be prepared as soon as possible after the incident occurs,
sent to the Section Executive who will send it on via the Section Chair to the Executive Director. The original, signed Releases(s) of all persons who suffered (or might later claimed to have suffered) personal injury or property damage/loss as a result of the incident must accompany this report. In this report, it is important to record all relevant information about the incident: times, location, activity being undertaken at the time of the incident, etc. Opinions or speculations as to how the incident could have been avoided should not be included. It is the Section Executive’s duty to ensure that the report is complete before submitting it to the Executive Director.
Under normal circumstances, it is expected that an incident report will be in the Executive Director’s hands no later than a maximum of 3 weeks after the incident.
Do NOT talk to the media about the incident. Any questions from the media are to be referred to the Executive Director of the Alpine Club of Canada. No copies of any Releases or incident reports are to be provided to the victim or any other person.
