Incident Report
Product details
An incident report is a tool that documents any event that may or may not has caused injuries to a person or damage to a company asset. It is used to capture injuries and accidents, near misses, property and equipment damage, health and safety issues, security breaches and misconducts in the worksite. An incident report can be used in the investigation and analysis of an event. It includes the root cause and corrective actions to eliminate the risks involved and prevent similar future occurrences. Incident reports can also be used as safety documents that indicate potential risks and uncontrolled hazards found in the worksite. Incident reporting has already been an established idea that is initially intended to promote and improve safety in the worksite. However, most of the employees still do not comply with this protocol. The management and their employees should know why incident reporting can not only improve an organization’s safety but also help the business to stand out from others and most importantly, can help create a sound and healthy working environment and culture for workers. In an event when an incident happened at work, documenting and reporting the details to the management can induce the immediate and necessary measures to be taken. Communicating threats, risks, and hazards to all concerned and affected employees in an organization help raise awareness of possible dangers that may come. Doing so will help leaders and supervisors to ensure preventive measures are in place in case things should go wrong. This could be an essential tool for industries in which tasks are associated with the highest risks such as the construction, manufacturing, mining industries, and even offices which are prone to accidents because of the potential hazards that can be overlooked. An incident report provides a clear picture of what an organization should focus on resolving. It also gives valuable insights into what processes need to be changed, improved, or eliminated. This also helps the management to implement new policies and regulations to be able to determine the efficacy of these changes to safety and quality.
