HECHOS

  • Un Conato de Accidente es Una Advertencia, No un Golpe de Suerte: un conato de accidente que no provoca lesiones sigue indicando que existe un peligro, que un control falló y que el mismo suceso puede volver a ocurrir —la próxima vez con un resultado diferente—.
  • La Pirámide es Real: Por cada lesión grave en el lugar de trabajo hay aproximadamente 29 lesiones leves, 300 cuasiaccidentes y más de 1,000 actos inseguros. Los cuasiaccidentes son el punto más fácil en el que intervenir.
  • No Reportar Significa no Resolver: un cuasiaccidente que no se reporta deja el peligro sin resolver. El siguiente trabajador en la misma situación se enfrenta al mismo riesgo sin que se haya tomado ninguna medida correctiva.
  • El Miedo Silencia el Sistema de Alerta: Los trabajadores que creen que reportar un conato de accidente resultará en culpas o medidas disciplinarias no lo reportarán, y la organización pierde sus datos de seguridad más tempranos y más útiles para tomar medidas.
  • Reconocer Patrones Salva Vidas: La mayoría de los incidentes graves son precedidos por un patrón de conatos de accidentes relacionados con el mismo peligro. Identificar ese patrón antes de que ocurra una lesión es el propósito fundamental de un programa de conatos de accidentes.
  • La Investigación no es Opcional: Documentar un conato de accidente sin investigar su causa raíz aporta poco valor. La medida correctiva —no el informe— es lo que previene el próximo incidente.
  • Los Casos de Estudio Convierten los Conatos de Accidente en Capacitación: Cuando los conatos de accidente se analizan y comparten entre todo el equipo, se convierten en algunas de las herramientas de capacitación en seguridad más efectivas que existen: sucesos reales, riesgos reales, sin lesiones asociadas.

ESTADÍSTICAS

  • Según estudios sobre seguridad laboral, cada año se producen aproximadamente 3 mil millones de incidentes que casi terminan en accidentes en los lugares de trabajo de EE. UU., pero la mayoría no se reportan ni se abordan.
  • Según la OSHA, por cada lesión grave en el trabajo hay casi 300 incidentes que casi terminan en accidentes y más de 1,000 actos inseguros.
  • Un informe del Consejo Nacional de Seguridad de 2025 reveló que las organizaciones con programas formales de reporte de cuasiaccidentes registraron una reducción del 23 por ciento en los accidentes graves en un plazo de tres años.
  • El mismo informe reveló que el 78 por ciento de los incidentes graves en el lugar de trabajo fueron precedidos por uno o más cuasiaccidentes no reportados.
  • Una encuesta de la Sociedad Canadiense de Ingeniería de Seguridad de 2022 reveló que el 58 % de los trabajadores creía que reportar un conato de accidente afectaría negativamente su empleo o su reputación.
  • Un análisis de WorkSafeBC sobre incidentes forestales reveló que, en los tres años previos a una muerte, el mismo sitio tuvo un promedio de cinco conatos de accidente documentados que involucraban riesgos similares.
