69⟩ Do you know what is a near-miss? Share a near-miss experience and what you learnt from it?

Near miss is a situation where an accident could happen but did not. These indicate leaks in security arrangements. Last year, during a renovation project someone placed heavy tiles on the first floor just where the floor was not strong enough to carry their weight. The floor gave in and a couple of tiles fell down, no one was hurt but I learnt to always place safety tags on weak parts of structures being renovated.

70⟩ Tell me what would you do if someone called and said there had been a serious accident at our facility?

The point of this question is to find out whether you can balance company policy with common sense. So a good answer might go something like this, “Well, one of the first things I’d do is familiarize myself with your procedures ahead of time so I could make sure my response is in alignment. Barring that, I’d find out what type of first response was needed – both to treat the injured and resolve the situation if it was ongoing – and get that response started.”
