PURPOSE

To show you why safety forms matter – especially the F-SMS-004 Incident Report. When we fill these out correctly, we prevent accidents and keep improving our safety practices. It’s that simple.

REAL STORY – WHAT HAPPENED ON THE FLOOR (4 minutes)

Here’s What Actually Happened:

Last week, John, a machine operator, got a small cut on his hand from a metal sheet. His supervisor thought it was “no big deal” and told John to just clean it up and keep working. No paperwork was filled out.

Two weeks later, the exact same thing happened to Sarah – same machine, same problem. This time, the new supervisor did his job right. He filled out the F-SMS-004 form, looked into what went wrong, and found out the machine guard had been broken for months.

The Result: They fixed it immediately and prevented 15 other workers from getting hurt the same way. What could have been multiple serious injuries was stopped by simply filling out one form correctly.

🤔 Think About This: How many “small accidents” go unreported in our workplace? How many chances to fix problems do we miss because we don’t document what happens?

MAIN POINTS (4 minutes)

  • Learn and improve: Every report is a chance to prevent the next accident
  • Legal protection: Proper documentation protects both you and the company

The Final Record: What the Forms Don’t Tell You

But here’s something to think about: how many accidents never get properly reported? How many stories stay buried in dusty file cabinets, with the full truth never coming to light? The F-SMS-004 form might just be the tip of the iceberg in a much more complex reality.

Every incident report that gets filled out carries more than just technical data – it holds pieces of human lives, moments that changed people’s paths forever. And maybe the most mysterious thing is realizing that behind every completed field, there’s a story that goes way beyond what any document can capture.

At the end of the day, the real power of incident reporting isn’t just about legal protection or following rules. It’s about turning every accident into a lesson, every report into a chance to prevent similar stories from repeating. But are we really learning from these silent lessons?
