Question
What are the most breakable barriers to reporting?
Answer
User adoption is a critical component in the global implementation of EHSQ software. Without those on the ground submitting a form each time a near-miss or incident occurs, management systems would be rendered useless. There are a number of reasons users may not be reporting incidents, but there are some that can be solved easily:
- Embarrassment
- Fear
- Difficulty
- Classification
- Lack of Organization Interest
Each can be tackled by taking simple steps if you’re the EHS Director or in senior management.
