Near Miss Report

Overview

The Near Miss Report screen allows the safety team to report near misses in the workplace. A near miss, near hit or close call is an unplanned event that has the potential to cause, but does not actually result in human injury, environmental or equipment damage, or an interruption to normal operation.

Note: You need to have a Safety team setup or at least 1 person setup for the Safety Module to work correctly.
