All Near Misses are investigated by the Safety Department and a risk assessment is conducted in order to mitigate any future reoccurrence. Significant Near Misses are shared with all crew by a Safety Alert. Captains share learnings with crew members during the safety stand down in order to prevent the incident from occurring on their vessel. In 2008 Harvey Gulf expanded Near Miss reporting and encouraged more participation by giving away an embroidered Harvey Gulf jacket each quarter for the best Near Miss. In 2008 Near Miss reporting increased 357 percent compared to the previous year. Harvey Gulf will continue giving away the jackets in 2009 and has a goal of increasing Near Miss reporting by another 10 percent.
