Week 1 Discussion Part 2: Australia-Wide Landscaping
In order to properly assess the implications of near misses with respect to incidents, injuries, and illnesses in a workplace, the optimal process or step is an email survey. Through email surveys, the various inadequacies that were formulated, which eventually led to the incident, injury, or illness affecting the company, will be properly analyzed. Thereafter the effects these phenomena produced for the company will also be accessed through the responses given by the various employees.
These responses are necessary as they are provided by the aspects of the company that have dealt with these problems. Therefore, the employees are the best mediums to access the effects of near misses in relation to incidents, injuries, and illnesses in a workplace.
In my workplace also, the procedure of accessing is also through the surveys. The employees are sent an email where they have to explain their experience in the workplace. Thereafter they are told to describe in detail the various elements they had to face in order to deal with the various incidents.
If some kind of misconduct is seen, then the employees have to explain it. It is with the help of this feedback regarding the implication of near missing in incidents, injuries, and illnesses that a proper plan is prepared in order to prevent such situations from happening again.
These kinds of procedures are optimal as they maintain the decorum of the workplace, but at the same time is, in-depth in approach. This provides the company with the best results when it comes to the aspect of feedback.
