Working environment is becoming an increasingly important subject in Sweden and especially in the construction industry. The reduction of accidents is a long-term task and part of achieving this is to report incidents that may cause an accident. Reporting of incidents and risk observations is seen as a tool for working proactively against accidents. In order to handle and compile these reports, a system is required. Currently JM is using a web-based system, BIA, and this is also used by many other companies within the industry. One problem according to JM is that the amount of reports are too few compared to how many incidents that actually occur at construction sites. Another is that some of the reports that come in have too little information or contains incorrect information. An interview study was conducted to find out what those working on construction sites think about incident reporting. The study was conducted in the regions Stockholm Nord and Region Öst, Uppsala. A result from the interviews is that reporting in the BIA can be considered as tedious and sometimes confusing. There are a number of improvements that should be implemented to make the process smoother. Amongst them is to make the program more user friendly and make it clearer. Some employees also lack the knowledge to differ between different types of incidents.
