Why is it important to develop an Effective Near Miss Program?

Statistics tell us…

that for every 300 near misses
there is one serious injury!
Near Misses occur frequently and the only difference between a Near Miss and an Actual Accident is luck! For example, if while I am driving I send a text message, and a truck suddenly appears in front of me, what can happen? I look up in the nick of time, slam on the brakes, and just avoid hitting the truck - a near miss. This same scenario can apply and instead of looking up in the nick of time, I slam into the truck an accident occurs. So what is the difference in these two scenarios? Luck! If I am lucky (a near miss) I avoid an accident, if I am not lucky I get into a serious accident.
What Causes Near Misses?
The same things that cause Accidents cause Near Misses:
Unsafe Acts
Unsafe Conditions
Hurrying & Taking Risks.
By eliminating the Root Causes of Near Misses, you eliminate accidents and help prevent fatalities from occurring.
