1.Accidents

2.Incidents

3.Near-miss

 

Example of the various meanings given to accidents, incidents and near-misses;

 

ACCIDENT:           An undesired event that results in harm to people damage to property or loss of property.

INCIDENT:           is a relatively insignificant event that MIGHT have serious consequences. In incidents, there is neither serious injury nor death but might be some damage involved.

NEAR-MISS:           is an unplanned event that did not result in injury, illness, or damage - but had the potential to do so. Only a fortunate break in the chain of events prevented an injury, fatality or damage.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE:  The drop-down boxes for the Drill Down search facility sort on a numerical / alphabetical order.  Using a special character @&#([ etc., at the beginning of a field names, for example (Major) Accident or #Minor-Accident may cause the drill-down search to return incomplete records...
