dear borntosin,
whats the problem with you..... if your company doesnot follow the safety rules and regulations, you should implement the same. instead of this, kindly avoid making these kind of unwanted comments....
according to safety rules, near misses are to be recorded & acted accordingly. this is followed strictly in PROFESSIONAL COMPANIES, who really give importance to safety. I'm from that culture & I cannot tollerate your idiotic comments. if u r in India, I do accept that these are useless, as the Indian companies does not offer to spend more on safety, due to their financial situation & they are more eager to earn profits.
a question for u - why u have not taken any step to change this drama.... if u r a safety professional, what is ur role in changing this drama? take efforts to improve the safety culture. pls. do not comment like this & demotivate the real safety professionals. we know how much pain we take to improve the safety culture as always we are under pressure.
dear sudipta,
its not that a company should have OHSAS. it is based on the mentality of the people, how they want to work. if they want to do in a proper systematic manner, then all will realize what needs to be done in a safe manner. its more of a common sense and the working culture.
in gulf countries, US, Singapore,etc., safety is must. whether all industries in these countries are having OHSAS? its their culture. ofcourse this culture might be becoz of their strict rules & regulations too.
dear sukhdeep,
the purpose of recording the near miss reports are - to act on what has happened & prevent the unsafe condition / act, as this near miss may lead to a serious accident. for examples, give me ur mail id. i will mail u in detail, later.
thanks & regards.
