The knife falls to the ground and lands blade-down on the kitchen floor, just missing the foot of Junior's little sister, Suzie, by a few centimeters. That is a Near Miss. As a parent, you will want to know what happened so you can take steps to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Here are some common examples of near misses: Slipping on hydraulic fluid on the shop floor and nearly falling. Almost dropping a heavy wrench on your foot. Knocking a board off scaffolding while people are working below you. Almost hitting someone with a forklift load because the lever sticks.

As an example, a brick falls from the top of a building on a building site, but nobody is hit or hurt. Near misses are therefore invaluable for challenging risk and control self-assessment scores. They are particularly helpful in assessing the performance of controls.

In general, here is the information you should include in a near miss report: Date, time, and location of the incident. Department. Incident description. Root cause (behavior, equipment, etc.) Supporting documents (photos, hazard analyses, etc.) Next steps and specific action items.

Some near miss examples when it comes to slipping and tripping at work include: Poor lighting resulting in an employee tripping, and almost falling over an undetected extension cord. A leaky air conditioner drips onto a walkway resulting in an employee slipping and nearly falling.

MIS Reports are reports required by the management to assess the performance of the organization and allow for faster decision-making. A Management Information System, often simply referred to as MIS, can be understood by looking at each of the words that make up the name.

Near miss reports should contain the following: Date, time, and location of the near miss event. Hazard/s that triggered the near miss event. Description of how the near miss event occurred. Possible consequences avoided. Signature/s of the employee/s affected.

Falling objects. Falling of any object on an offshore installation etc. or on a vessel, moored or at sea near an offshore installation etc. or a vessel, where the object could have caused serious personal injury. Containers. Failure of load-bearing parts of containers in connection with lifting.
