Rejected petition: Develop UK guidance for standardised near miss reporting and learning
Rejected on
Require the HSE to publish national guidance on standardised near miss reporting in complex socio-technical systems. The guidance should support consistent reporting, systems thinking and organisational learning from both risk identification and successful risk mitigation.
Near-miss reporting is widely encouraged but there is no national guidance on how organisations should systematically analyse and learn from these events, particularly in complex socio-technical systems. I ask Parliament to support the HSE in developing guidance to standardise near-miss reporting and promote systems thinking, helping organisations learn from both risks that are identified and the actions that successfully prevent harm, improving safety and organisational learning.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
This is an operational matter for HSE to undertake and isn't the direct responsibility of Government or of Parliament.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
