Explains what near misses are, the purpose of NMR and why it’s vital to improve workplace safety. Also outlines the common obstacles an effective reporting system must overcome.
Outlines how to promote a culture of psychological safety within your organisation to overcome workers’ reluctance to report incidents. This approach ensures all near misses are reported to maximise opportunities for learning and improvement.
Explores human factors, such as situational awareness, and their impact on workplace safety. Also covers the discipline of human and organisational performance (HOP) and how it can help guide safety improvements.
Discusses the concept of systems thinking and how it can help you look beyond the immediate circumstances of a near miss to draw more meaningful lessons.
Shows how effective learning means changing. Also explains how to treat learning as an ongoing process to ensure improvements are meaningful and continuous.
Provides practical techniques to improve learning from near miss reporting and strategies that promote psychological safety.

Effective near miss reporting helps leaders identify workplace hazards and proactively measure how risk controls are performing.
But unfortunately, NMR systems often fail to generate any significant learning or safety improvements because leaders fail to see the primary goal of NMR – to learn and improve.
Line managers can neglect reports, letting them become tick-box exercises that lead to negligible developments. Or front-line employees may only report on ‘forgivable’ incidents, often because they don’t understand what should be reported or fear repercussions.
This attitude lets the root causes of incidents go unaddressed, resulting in a lack of significant progress in safety performance.
Our comprehensive near miss training course shows you how to take a different approach and use near miss reporting as a powerful performance tool that can transform safety culture. You will learn how to extract meaningful lessons from near misses, promote positive learning behaviours and engage front-line workers to achieve lasting improvements in safety and business performance.
Near miss reporting plays a pivotal role in accident prevention. As an employer, you have a significant role to play in fostering a proactive safety culture within your organisation.
To prevent accidents, employers must:
This comprehensive Near Miss Reporting for Effective Learning course guides users to establish successful near miss reporting systems that generate meaningful learning and safety improvements.
Trainees learn how to use near miss reporting (NMR) to analyse the contexts that cause human error and work with front-line staff to reveal how work is actually done within an organisation. This proactive approach gives you the insights you need to make meaningful improvements to work systems, enhancing safety and productivity.
Near miss reporting involves documenting and reporting incidents or situations that could have led to accidents or injuries but were narrowly avoided. Analysing near misses helps identify potential failures in work systems, letting you take steps to improve them before accidents happen.
This near miss training is designed for managers, supervisors, and employees at all levels who play a role in workplace safety and accident prevention. This course is ideal for anyone responsible for creating a safe working environment.
This online course is suitable for a wide range of sectors, including manufacturing, construction, healthcare, transportation and more. Near miss reporting and safety enhancement principles are relevant across all work environments.
