Safety Team,

Enclosed is a near miss abstract that involves lock out/tag out (LOTO) operation. Many workers had the impression that LOTO only applies to electrical system. On the contrary, it applies to stored energy (e.g., gravity, steam, compressed air, hydraulics, utilities, etc.). Please share the enclosure and its lessons learned to your team.
Also attache the two more Lesson learned pdf file for your use.

Dear Raghu
Thanks for sharing..
The first two attachments, I would like to call it as an Unsafe Condition Reporting, rather than Near Miss...
Are you agreeing to me, if not how we can fit these two under Near Miss...

Dear Dipil,
Good Question I’m agree with you, but, let me give an example if bolt falls from top of floor/somewhere but nobody can’t get hurt ‘’What we called this?’’ am sure we called ‘’NEARMISS’’ . If we analyses this scenario in depth how bolt falls from floor/somewhere surely we find/get the root cause. Most of time we supposed to get the reason was unsafe act or unsafe condition.
Unsafe act or unsafe condition only leads to Near miss (EXCEPT very few rare cases), most of time its cause accident. My understanding was NEARMISS will not happen without unsafe act or unsafe condition.
Waiting for your view on this matter.

Dear Raghu
Thanks for the inputs.
In the incident case scenario which you explained, after the incident happened it is called Near Miss and before the incident happened it is unsafe act or man made unsafe condition...
Companies even following two schemes.. One is called Near Miss Reporting and another is Unsafe Condition & Potential Unsafe Act Reporting... So both have it's own significance and have to dealt separately... It's changing from Industry to Industry, company to company... Whatever may be, the ultimate aim should be incident prevention... That's it...
