Your frontline staff is hesitant to report near misses. How can you encourage them to prioritize safety?
Understanding the hesitation among your frontline staff to report near misses is crucial for fostering a culture of safety. A near miss, which is an event that could have led to an accident or injury but didn't, often goes unreported due to fears of blame or lack of understanding about the importance of reporting. To encourage your staff to prioritize safety, it's essential to address these concerns and create an environment where safety is seen as a collective responsibility.
