Question

Why is it important to discuss and report near misses or even true errors?

Answer 1

a near miss is an unplanned event that happened but did not cause any damage to the property or injury to the living beings, but have the potential to do so.Near-miss reporting is vitally important in preventing serious incidents that are less frequent but more harmful than near-misses.  

near misses are potentially hazardous that can cause injury at any time if it happens. it is considered as a uncontrolled hazard. The main aim of reporting the near misses are to remove the hazard from the work place to protect the workers and environment. It is critical that all injuries and accidents, including near misses, be reported so that they can be investigated and the causes determined and eliminated.

A true error is the difference in value between that we got and the true value. it is only measurable once we got the true value.
