Description
The Near Miss Record Book is necessary for any workplace or school to record any near miss incidents that occur. It contains clear guidance on what a Near Miss Incident is, the employers and employee's responsibilities, and guidance for completing a record.
Near Miss Incidents are defined by the HSE as "an event not causing harm, but has the potential to cause injury or ill health," including any reportable dangerous occurrences as defined by RIDDOR (Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013)
Near Miss Records are then used to inform risk assessments and to help ensure that serious injuries and accidents do not occur in the future. The book contains 53 incident forms with a perforated top, allowing forms to be easily removed from the book for safe storage.
