Encourage employees to report health and safety incidents

The ability to provide a safe workplace and support compliance has never been more vital. Employers have learned the importance of managing not only extreme circumstances such as wars, natural disasters, and pandemics but also day-to-day workplace safety.

Many organizations find it challenging to get their workforce to report health and safety incidents in a timely way. Workers are often unsure as to whether they should notify their organization of events such as near misses or unsafe conditions.

Oracle Workforce Health and Safety provides employees with a guided safety tool they can access from any device. Employees can capture critical event information in real time with minimal data entry required. Once an incident has been reported, HR or a health and safety professional can easily digest the information to understand the issue at hand, initiate an investigation with guided questionnaires, and drive follow-up actions and alerts to engage the broader organization—all using one service.

Improve health and safety outcomes

Incidents are expensive. While the direct costs, such as workers’ compensation and medical and legal services, are obvious, the indirect costs of an incident shouldn’t be underestimated; these include retraining, investigations, corrective measures, lost productivity, damage to equipment, reputational risk, and costs associated with lower employee morale, absenteeism, and retention.

Prevention is better. Oracle Workforce Health and Safety provides simple, easy-to-use tools that encourage employees to report concerns and minimize the obstacles to reporting. Autocompleted fields based on an employee’s role and location help employees capture incidents quickly and easily. Employees can add additional context about the incident by taking pictures or filling out notes. This can help ensure that incidents are captured efficiently and that most incidents are reported.
