Imagine you almost tripped on a loose carpet but caught yourself just in time. That's a near miss – a situation where an accident could have happened but didn’t.

 

In the workplace, a Near Miss Report is like a story about these close calls. It details what almost went wrong, helping to understand and prevent real accidents in the future.

​
