Learning from Near Misses can provide opportunities to improve safety without the need for harm to have first occurred. Near misses are ‘free lessons’ which are high volume and rich in value. However, some sectors are yet to embrace learning from near misses to improve the effectiveness and safety of their operations. This book explores how near misses contribute to safety management across a range of high-risk sectors and shares lessons to help organisations, industries and sectors utilise learning from near misses in line with contemporary safety theory.
