• It is a Good safety management practice as reviewing the report (at the time and/or
periodically) may help to prevent a re-occurrence. Recording these near misses can also
help identify any weaknesses in operational procedures as deviations from normal good
practice may only happen infrequently but could have potentially high consequences. A
review of near misses over time may reveal patterns from which lessons can be learned.
• Where a review of near miss information reveals that changes to ways of operating, risk
assessments or safety management arrangements are needed, these changes should be
put into effect.
Why do we need a Near Miss system?
• We reinforce the idea that any dangerous situation should be dealt at the
time it is observed Don’t wait, act!
• This embodies principles of behaviour shift, responsibility sharing, awareness,
and incentives
