## Adding Incidents for a Category

This guide explains how to add an incident and create a new **Supplemental Incident Report (SIR)** within an operation category.

## Adding a SIR

After selecting an operation category, click the **+ Add MTO**, **Add RWC**, **Add LTI**, or **Add FTL** button (depending on the type of the incident) to add an incident and create a new SIR.

<Tip>
  MTO = Medical Treatment Only

  RWC = Restricted Work/Transfer Case

  LTI = Lost Time Incident

  FTL = Fatality
</Tip>

The quantity of incident reports for each type is indicated by the number shown next to it.

<Warning>
  The SIR number is a unique identifier — it has no significance beyond distinguishing individual SIRs.
</Warning>

To quickly view the answers to an SIR, click **Show Answers**. For a new SIR, all questions will be unanswered by default.

To begin completing the required answers for a Supplemental Incident Report, simply click on the **Edit** button of the desired SIR.

## Optional and required SIR information

The SIR form has optional and required questions that can be completed. A SIR is considered incomplete until all *required questions* have been answered.

**Optional SIR Information:**

These answers are for the participant company's use and records and may be used at a later date for advanced reporting.

* Date of Work
* Rig Name/Number
* Is this a SIF (Serious Injury or Fatality)
* SIF Comments (*if applicable*)

**Required SIR Information:**

These are the standard questions that have been historically required for a SIR. An answer must be provided for each of these questions for an SIR to be considered COMPLETE.

* Occupation Type
* Body Parts
* Incident Type
* Equipment Type
* Operation Type
* Location
* Time In Service for Company
* Time of Day
* Age of Injured

<Tip>
  For each question there is an option for *Not Reported* and *Other*, if the available answers do not apply.
</Tip>

## Answering the Required SIR Questions

For each required question, only 1 answer can be selected. When an answer is selected, you will automatically move to the next required question.

You may navigate between questions using the **Next** and **Previous** buttons above the question. You may also go back to the SIR Summary page (to review your answers) at any time by clicking the **Go to Summary Page** link above the question.

## Save Changes

After you have finished answering all of the required SIR questions, click **Save Changes** to complete this supplemental incident report.

At any point while editing an SIR, the changes made can be discarded or saved.

<Warning>
  Discarded changes can not be recovered. If you click **Discard Changes**, you will be asked to confirm this decision. This will discard any changes you have made to optional or required questions while the edit SIR window was open.
</Warning>
