are communicated to their supervisors or safety officers so that corrective measures
can be taken.
Supervisors and Managers:
Oversight and Action: Supervisors and managers are responsible for ensuring that
employees are aware of the reporting procedures and are encouraged to report

corrective actions.
Training: They should provide training and resources to help employees identify and
report hazards effectively.

for monitoring hazard reports, ensuring that they are addressed, and maintaining a
safe working environment.
Procedures and Policies: They develop and implement hazard reporting procedures
and ensure compliance with safety regulations.
