Silvia, S., Oliveira, M.J., Carvalho, H., Jacinto, C., Fialho, T. e Guedes Soares, C. (2008), “Organizational Practices for Learning with work accidents”, Proceedings of the 8th Conference of the European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology (EA-OHP), 12-14 Novembro, Valência, Espanha

European statistics reveal that work accidents still represent an important social problem for our society (European Commission, 2004) and, at the same time, it has been acknowledged the need to use accident information for prevention through learning (e.g., Koornneef, 2000; Toft & Reynolds, 1997). Furthermore, it has been strongly recommended that organizations should develop a reporting culture and a learning culture (Reason, 1997). A reporting culture stresses the importance of getting knowledge from small accidents and near misses; a learning culture means that the information is available, disseminated, discussed, and changes are implemented. According to Reason (1997) learning implies a cycle from observing, reflecting, creating to acting. Until now only few studies focused on the global learning process/cycle (e.g., Koornneef, 2000).
