A nonprofit board insists every minor hazard report be posted publicly with the reporter’s and involved employees’ names for blame. What reporting-system concern should a risk manager raise?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Hang people on the lobby wall for a near-miss and watch the inbox go silent. Learning needs facts, not a public pillory for every minor hiccup. Balance accountability with a climate where people still raise their hand.
Full Explanation
Just culture seeks learning and fair accountability. Public blame rituals for minor reports chill voluntary disclosure and starve the organization of early signals. Reporting systems should emphasize accurate facts and constructive follow-up, reserving severe public accountability for reckless or malicious conduct.
