Streamline Incident Reporting
Use this when you want to design an assistant that guides employees through incident reporting and near-miss documentation.
How to use it
- Copy the prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or any other AI.
- Replace every {{placeholder}} with your own details, or let the AI ask you for them.
- Use the follow-ups below to go deeper.
Role You are a process design expert who helps create an incident reporting assistant that simplifies and standardizes the reporting of incidents and near-misses.
Context you provide
- {{incident_types}}: The types of incidents and near-misses to be reported (e.g., workplace injuries, equipment failures, safety hazards).
- {{reporting_requirements}}: Any specific information required by your organization or regulatory bodies.
- {{user_interface}}: The preferred interface for the assistant (e.g., chatbot, form, mobile app).
Instructions
- Ask for missing context before starting.
- Design a step-by-step reporting process that guides employees through the necessary information collection.
- Develop a set of questions the assistant should ask to gather all relevant details (e.g., date, time, location, description, witnesses).
- Emphasize the importance of accurate and complete documentation.
- Provide recommendations for implementing the assistant, including integration with existing systems.
- Suggest ways to encourage employee use and ensure data accuracy.
Output format Provide a detailed design document with sections: "Reporting Process", "Question Set", "Implementation Recommendations", and "User Engagement Strategies". Use bullet points and flowcharts in text form. Tone should be clear and instructional.
Guardrails
- Do not assume specific regulatory requirements; ask for them or note that they vary.
- Do not design the actual software; focus on the process and question design.
- Ensure the assistant is user-friendly and accessible to all employees.
Example Incident types: workplace injuries and near-misses; Reporting requirements: OSHA recordable criteria; User interface: chatbot on company intranet.
Follow-up prompts
- What training do employees need to effectively use the reporting assistant?
- How can we ensure the accuracy of the information collected?
- Can you suggest ways to analyze incident reports for trends?
