Why Workers Fail to Report Hazzards and injuries???

 

Why do Workers Fail to Report Hazards and injuries???

     Fear. Unbelievably, fear may be the least frequent excuse given by employees for failing to disclose near-misses. It is true that some organizations foster a culture in which workers are penalized for getting hurt, thus these employees are less likely to report near-misses if they worry about losing their employment.

6 Core Types of Hazards :

            Safety hazards.

              Biological hazards. 

  •               Physical hazards
  •               Ergonomic hazards. 
  •               Chemical hazards.
  •               Workload hazards.

  •                     Educate employees and management staff. 
  •                     Research safety vulnerabilities. 
  •                     Provide protection equipment. 
  •                     Have adequate staffing levels.
  •                     Don't take shortcuts.
  •                     Inspect and maintain all company vehicles.

  • Why do Workers Fail to Report Hazards and injuries???
             
  • Accepting pain as part of the job
  • Not wanting to be labeled a “complainer”
  • Believing home treatment would be sufficient
  • Not being sure if the injury was work-related
