Reactive Monitoring Systems
Reactive monitoring systems collect and analyse information suggesting failures in health, safety and environmental performances. These require systems for reporting:
• Injuries and cases of ill health;
• Events, e.g. damage to property or the environment;
• Events that have the potential to cause injury, illness or damage to property or the environment;
• Hazards;
• Weaknesses or omissions in performance standards.
