Has anyone got a simple one pager selling the benefits of accident/incident reporting. I need something by Thursday for selling a new reporting system.

Depends on who you are selling to - is it senior management or the general workforce?

Homer, not a one-pager as such but the following may help:

Minor incidents are often a precursor to a more serious incident e.g. domino effect.

A proactive safety culture is often epitomised by the quality of incident reporting and investigation e.g. learning from your mistakes.

Reported unsafe acts and conditions that do not result in an incident (near miss) are a free lesson in which to learn the underlying and immediate causes.

For a starter, I always go back to the HSE "Successful Health and Safety Management"

There is a briefish summmary on pages 5/6

But don't believe slavishly all you read.

Merv (and look at the dates of the studies they quote)
