Workplace Safety Survey

Hazards, near-misses, and whether people feel safe reporting them.

4 questions · 1 page · about 2 minutes to answer · fully editable after you start

The incidents you record are the tip; the near-misses nobody reports are the iceberg. This survey asks employees directly about hazards they have noticed, near-misses they did not report, and – crucially – whether reporting feels safe or career-limiting, which is the real safety culture question.

Run it anonymously twice a year and after any serious incident. The hazard write-ins become your inspection checklist, and the reporting-comfort trend tells you whether your safety culture is improving or just quieter.
