How about this:

-       A near miss is an accidental event that has not resulted in any personal injury, illness, or damage.

-       Unsafe working conditions, unsafe employee work habits, improper use of equipment, and use of malfunctioning equipment have the potential to cause work related injuries.

How about discussing how to define a Near Miss?

Hi:

 

Seeking to not reinvent the wheel, does anyone have a near-miss reporting form they like?  I have one but I'm not happy with it.

 

Thanks!
