Near Misses DVD
Are you involved in road works or highway maintenance?
If so then you need to see our new DVD:
Silence is Consent - Changing Attitudes Towards Near Misses.
For every 600 Near Misses there will be…
- 30 events resulting in damage….
- 10 resulting in Minor Injuries…
- And 1 leading to Fatal Injuries.
Near Misses are opportunities to learn how we can avoid similar incidents.
Partners in the highways industry have commissioned a training DVD to promote the importance of Near Miss reporting. The DVD is designed to be used in Team Briefings or Tool Box Talks. Its aim is to raise awareness of the impact Near Misses have on safety performance and motivate people to take a more active role in reducing their frequency and reduce the number of accidents and injuries across the industry.
