Incident Reporting

Under the terms and conditions of Poolsafe facilities there is a requirement to report notifiable incidents to the Recreation Aotearoa Aquatics Programme Manager within 24 hours. This should be followed by a copy of the incident report as and when it is produced.

These reports are kept on file and the information is used to identify trends or gaps and inform changes to the Poolsafe criteria if required. Outcomes of incidents and changes made to operating procedures are also shared with industry

An annual incident review is sent out to facilities for completion. Once collated this information gives us a picture of the amount of people using our facilities and the numbers and types of incidents occurring These figures are also shared with WSNZ
