NOPSA Contacts

Emergencies - Reporting of Incidents

The document Guidance on Notifying and Reporting of Accidents and Dangerous Occurrences [148 kB PDF] gives details of the types of events that are to be notified, and the information that is required when making the notification and submitting the subsequent written report.

NOPSA Incident Notification Telephone Number

Incidents can be notified to the Safety Authority by any suitable means. For the convenience of duty holders the Safety Authority has a dedicated phone line:

(08) 6461 7090

This line will be answered directly during office hours. Outside office hours a menu system will allow callers to leave a voicemail recorded message requesting a call back, but if the matter is particularly urgent, such as fatalities, serious injuries or an emergency abandonment, the caller can have the call automatically diverted to a Safety Authority representative. The Safety Authority monitors recorded messages at intervals of less than 10 hours.
