Unsafe Act

An unsafe act is a behavior or action that increases the risk of injury or damage in the workplace. It occurs when someone bypasses established safety procedures, takes shortcuts, or ignores safety warnings, which can lead to accidents or hazards. These acts are often unintentional but can have serious consequences if not corrected. Recognizing unsafe acts is important for preventing accidents, as they highlight areas where safety practices need improvement. Addressing unsafe acts through proper training and oversight helps maintain a safer environment for everyone involved.
