Company I work is part of a big conglomerate of construction outfits . Corporate wise they have had a "Near Miss Reporting Policy " . Which means if you saw something that was a close call you need to report it .
Example I read , "Dump truck was observed spreading gravel . Bed looked like it was higher than the power lines . I stopped the driver and informed him that he was close to the lines . Decided it was better to dump the rest of the load and spread with a skid steer ".
That don't seem to bad and kinda mundane . My worry is that this reporting will be recorded and names put with it to be used against you or someone else a a later date . History proves they have no problem going back 3 years to dig something up to beat on you with .
I think my boss is getting pressure from above ,About the lack of near miss cards turned in . He stated Thursday that we are behind in miss reporting and I have never received anything from a driver (while looking straight at me) .
I'm really looking for opinions . As I find it hard to want to narc on someone or myself . Has anyone been hurt or canned over a near miss report ??
