Reporting ‘near miss’ accidents

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

A near miss could be your next accident so they should never go unreported. When a near miss does go unreported, you’ve lost an opportunity to make improvements and learn from the incident.

One of the biggest hazards facing the UK construction sector is the people and plant interface. Knowing when and how near miss incidents occur is essential improvement for site safety. ZoneSafe proximity warning systems offer a solution by logging all near miss incidents between people and plant. With their latest ZoneSafe system, Avonwood Developments have made near miss data integral to the solution.

General manager David Thomas said: "ZoneSafe is not just about audible visual proximity alarms. We also provide solutions to reduce on-site risks and help users understand near miss incidents before they turn into accidents.

“ZoneSafe Insight, our hosted Software as a Service (SaaS), now delivers near miss data to your inbox. It provides an easy to read report, highlighting areas of risk. This helps users make informed safety improvements."
