Reporting High Potential Incidents

A High Potential (HiPo) incident/event is one that realistically could have under other circumstances caused one or more fatalities or life changing injury.

If you witness a HiPO, STEP IN where it is safe to do so and be sure to inform your Supervisor.

Identifying potential problems can help avoid any future injuries.

By eliminating hazardous behaviours and conditions we will eliminate near misses and incidents at higher levels of the pyramid. Cemex statistics show that the fewer potentially hazardous events reported, the greater the risk of an accident. HiPos are a great opportunity for identifying additional learning to prevent incidents and injuries.

Please watch this short video and remember Safety First.

Managers – please print off the poster in the download section of the UK News website:  HiPo reporting poster (335 downloads) and share on workplace notice boards, and also please share this video with your teams.
