4 Near Miss Reporting Introduction The identification and reporting of a near miss event is a critical component of a Safety Management System, hazard identification, reporting and taking measures to eliminate or mitigate hazards in the workplace before injury or loss occurs is a principle of accident prevention. Completion of the Near Miss Report Form is a preventive measure for the identification of hazards within the workplace that has not but may have caused property damage, injury or death of a worker. Once the report has been submitted it will be the responsibility of the workplace s management to determine the cause for the near miss and then take measures to prevent future occurrences. Management can ask for assistance to determine the cause of the event from their employees, OH&S Co-chairs, members of their OH&S Committee or may consult with their Workplace Health and Safety Representative. The following are examples of a near miss event that would have to be reported to management. In all examples there was no injury or death of a worker: A jack stand fails and a vehicle falls to the garage floor A citizen removes a traffic barricade and proceeds to drive through a construction site While removing a sidewalk a live electrical cable is exposed. The underground locate did not identify the presence of the electrical utility. An office worker slips on a wet floor An operator exits the cab of a grader while the tip of the wing is in contact with an overhead high voltage power line While lifting an object with a crane the sling fails dropping the load to the ground A facilities cleaner mixes two cleaning chemicals together that react with each other creating noxious fumes and the need to evacuate the area Workplace Health and Safety Branch 14-3
