Why Origami Risk?• The University is committed to maintaining a safe

environment that will encourage and enhance the experiences of each person who steps onto one of our campuses

• An important part of improving safety is quickly identifying and responding to incidents or unsafe conditions

• A new online incident reporting system, Origami Risk, has been designed to make incident reporting easy and simple for all employees and students

Effective 27 March 2015, the University of Alaska will use the on-line Origami Risk program for reporting incidents and unsafe conditions. Reporting options include:

• Employee incidents with/without medical treatment

• Reporting an injured person (including students)

• Reporting an Unsafe Condition

• Reporting damaged UA and non-UA Property

• Reporting damaged UA and non-UA vehicles

PLEASE NOTE: All previous UA and UAF Incident/Accident reporting forms are obsolete and should not be used

Origami Risk - BenefitsBenefits of this new online reporting system include:

Immediate EHSRM/UA Claims notification of the incident

Faster investigation and response process

Less resources (paperless system, no postage, no mail delays, etc.)

Timely reports can be submitted from all systems (PC and Mac computers, tablets, smart phones, etc.)

Better customer service for worker’s compensation and general insurance claims

Fewer forms to complete for accidents with injuries (Previously, three forms were required; now only one!)
