Re: AOD
If off for more than 3 days after AOD, I think, employers have to report it to H+S Executive I believe. Also, get the ERICA report sorted at work too. Witnesses are great help.
You can get a form from DSS/DWP, which records the accident, then after sending it in, they get back to you giving their decision on whether it was Industrial Injury.
I've done it twice and been sucessful both times. Keep record of accident, what happened, who stated what, conditions before, during, after the event. Good luck!
