Keep UA safe by reporting Accidents and Unsafe Conditions

Maintaining a safe environment at the University of Alaska benefits each person who steps onto one of our campuses.Whether you work in Anchorage or Fairbanks, Statewide employees can help improve safety by quickly identifying and reporting injuries, non-emergency damages, or potential hazards.

The online incident reporting system, Origami Risk, makes reporting risks and potentially unsafe incidents simple and easy.  An “incident” is an injury, damaged property or damage to vehicles. Examples of “unsafe conditions” include damaged walking surfaces, broken hand rails, inadequate lighting in common areas and even fire hazards. 

Online incident reporting allows for faster, easier reporting. Statewide staff can make immediate reports via their PC, Mac, tablet, or smartphone, and even take a picture and submit it online by logging in with your UA credentials. Electronic submissions are handled more rapidly, providing better customer service for worker’s compensation and general insurance claims.

Electronic reporting allows speeds up the investigation and response process, because campus Environmental, Health & Safety departments are notified as soon as an incident report is submitted. Cost savings come not only from a less time-consuming and paper-free process, but also from improved loss prevention resulting from early identification and investigation of incidents.
