1. IN SUPPORT OF REF A, ALL INJURIES (INCLUDING MILITARY
OFF-DUTY AND MOTOR VEHICLE INJURIES) AND OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESSES PREVENTING
PERSONNEL FROM PERFORMING REGULARLY SCHEDULED DUTY (WORK) FOR ONE TO FOUR
DAYS WILL BE REPORTED TO THE NAVAL SAFETY CENTER DAILY (EXCLUDING MARINE
CORPS GROUND - MARINE CORPS GROUND WILL CONTINUE TO REPORT VIA MARTRAK). TO
ACCOMPLISH THIS NEW TASKING, WE DEVELOPED THE WEB ENABLED SAFETY SYSTEM (WESS
1). WESS 1 ALLOWS COMMAND SAFETY REPRESENTATIVES TO WORK ONLINE IN REAL TIME
TO REPORT LOST WORKDAY INJURIES AND OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESSES.
2. A LOST WORK DAY (LWD) INJURY OR ILLNESS IS ONE PREVENTING A PERSON FROM
PERFORMING DUTY OR WORK FOR ONE OR MORE DAYS BEYOND THE DAY OR SHIFT OF
INJURY OR ON SET OF ILLNESS.
3. AFLOAT COMMANDS WILL REPORT ONE TO FOUR LOST WORK DAY CASES (LWD) DAILY
(EXCEPT SPECIAL CASE MISHAPS) OR AS
FEASIBLE USING THE NEW WESS 1 REPORTING SYSTEM AND CONTINUE TO REPORT FIVE
OR MORE LWD CASES AND ALL SPECIAL CASE (ELECTRIC SHOCK;
HAZMAT, CHEMICAL, AND TOXIC EXPOSURES; AND BACK
INJURIES) MISHAPS ACCORDING TO CHAPTER A6 OF
REFERENCE B. THE AFLOAT POC IS MR. STEVE SCUDDER.
4. SHORE COMMANDS WILL REPORT LOST WORK DAY CASES DAILY IAW REF C; THE
DIFFERENCE IS DAILY REPORTING AND WESS 1 WILL REPLACE INJTRAK FOR REPORTING
INJURIES AND OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESSES. THE ASHORE POC IS MR. AL JACKA.
5. AVIATION COMMANDS WILL CONTINUE TO REPORT FIVE OR MORE LWD INJURIES
ASSOCIATED WITH DEFINED NAVAL AIRCRAFT UNDER REF D. USE
THE NEW WESS 1 TO REPORT OTHER LWD INJURIES AND OCCUPATIONAL ILLNESSES
UNDER THE SAME REQUIREMENTS AS AFLOAT COMMANDS WHEN ATTACHED TO (EMBARKED
IN) AN AFLOAT COMMAND. AT ALL OTHER TIMES, REPORT AS ASHORE
COMMAND. THE AVIATION POC IS MR. TED WIRGINIS.
6. WESS 1 IS A MENU-DRIVEN, USER FRIENDLY ON-LINE DATA ENTRY AND DATA
RETRIEVAL SYSTEM. IT WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR USE ON 25 NOVEMBER 2002 AND IS
MANDATORY FOR ALL NAVY ACTIVITIES EFFECTIVE 1 JANUARY2003. AFTER 1 JANUARY,
WE WILL NO LONGER ACCEPT LWD REPORTS FROM INJTRAK, PAPER LOGS OR LOCALLY
GENERATED OSHA REPORTING SYSTEMS. FORWARD FIRST QUARTER FY03 INJTRAK
DATA OR DATA FROM OTHER OSHA REPORTING SYSTEMS TO US BY 15 JAN 03 FOR ENTRY.
7. WE RECOMMEND EACH COMMAND DESIGNATE AN ADEQUATE NUMBER OF COMMAND SAFETY
ORGANIZATION PERSONNEL (ENOUGH TO FACILITATE DAILY DATA ENTRY) TO OBTAIN A
WESS 1 ACCOUNT. NOTE: DOD INFORMATION ASSURANCE INSTRUCTIONS REQUIRE LOGIN
ACCOUNTS BY INDIVIDUALS. COMMANDS CAN OBTAIN WESS 1 ACCOUNTS BY VISITING THE
SAFETY CENTER WEB PAGE AT WWW.SAFETYCENTER.NAVY.MIL AND SELECTING
"SUBMIT AN ON LINE INJURY/ILLNESS OR BASH REPORT" FROM OUR
HOMEPAGE. THEN SELECT "REQUEST ACCOUNT" AND FILL OUT AS
APPROPRIATE. WE WILL E-MAIL THE REQUIRED LOGIN INSTRUCTIONS DIRECTLY TO THE
INDIVIDUAL.
8. THIS MESSAGE WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL REFS B, C, AND D ARE CHANGED TO
REFLECT THE NEW REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. //
