Seahealth A 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 prevents an injury, fatality or damage; in other words, a miss that was nonetheless very near. If we can spot the unsafe conditions there is a high likelyhood that we can avoid the unsafe act, near miss and accident. If we are able to alert each other and have a high safety awareness we would be able to stop the unsafe act, avoiding the near miss and accident. If we miss the two first opportunities, we still have one more chance to avoid the accident. Namely: report and discuss the near miss, in order to prevent personal injury or accident to hull and machinery. Look at the cartoon to the right and perhaps discuss it with your collegues. Do you agree with the above terms? If you agree upon the terms, then how can you prevent the nearmiss by spotting the unsafe act and/ or condition?)

HSEQ Reports NT #258 02-11-15 Vessel: Regina Baltica - Non-conformity Report regarding: Rumour about mold on bread Description: One technician mentioned that he got bread with mould from breadboxes in the restaurant area. He got the bread in the morning, packing his lunch box. When unpacking the bread at lunchtime, he found mould on it. Action: First we tried covering the bread in towels instead of putting it in plastic boxes, but, as the bread became very dry very fast when doing this, we are now back to plastic boxes. We are now trying something else; instead of warming the bread before serving it, we now only defrost and serve it. No warm air trapped in the plastic box, so hopefully no mould. HSEQ: No comments
