How to use it
Step 1
Do it before you leave site, not Friday afternoon. Details fade by the next morning.
Step 2
Say who, what, where and how long. 'Waited on the concrete truck' is more useful than 'the supplier was late'.
Step 3
Write down the near miss. It's the line that matters most later, and it's how you learn from it.
Fill this out on a phone, with photos and signatures on the screen. It works with no signal and the record is kept for you.
