Reporting safety hazards and incidents is crucial for maintaining a safe and healthy workplace. By promptly reporting potential dangers like faulty equipment, hazardous materials, or unsafe work practices, employees can prevent accidents and injuries. This proactive approach not only protects individuals but also fosters a culture of safety where everyone feels empowered to speak up and contribute to a safer environment. Furthermore, reporting incidents, including near misses, helps identify systemic issues and implement corrective measures to prevent future occurrences.
