The Department does not collect or hold any information relating to National Health Service staff deaths for the purpose of reporting under RIDDOR. The responsibility to collect this information and report it to the Health and Safety Executive under RIDDOR (The Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013), remains with the ‘responsible persons.’
