Why Reporting Workplace Incidents Matters Picture This

In this image, a worker is trying to prevent a stack of heavy boxes from falling while standing in a warehouse. The boxes appear unstable and his helmet is already on the ground, indicating a serious safety lapse. The situation shows how easily injuries can occur when loads are not properly secured or when workers are caught off guard. This is a near miss that could have led to a severe injury.

Failing to report such incidents can lead to repeated accidents and more serious outcomes. When workers report incidents or close calls, supervisors can identify hazards and take corrective action. Unreported risks leave others vulnerable and prevent learning from mistakes. Timely reporting is key to improving workplace safety and saving lives.
