I am doing the research for my final paper for school, does anyone know what the accident/error rate is for a new employee vs. an experienced one is?
up to 12% for new
.7 for experienced
It just demonstrates that you cannot prevent all errors/accidents but some companies feel that they can eliminate them all. My current employer is doing this near miss program, people are writing up that a carpet corner (one of those throw rugs) was kicked up and they called facilities to come and fix the safety issue instead of bending over or kicking it back into place, but the OSHA and NFPA violation get ignored.....or at least marginalized. Just frustrates me to no end. Tim
