Question bank
Near-miss reporting and speaking up survey questions

Nine survey questions for workplace safety teams, grouped into near-miss reporting and speaking up. They ask how easy reporting is, how many near-misses people saw and reported, what stops them, and whether they feel safe to stop unsafe work or raise a concern. Copy them into a safety climate survey, or run them in Koji as an interview that asks why when someone says reporting is hard.
