The Confidential Safety Information Reporting Scheme (CSIRS) gives employees in the transport industry a confidential way to make a report about a safety issue affecting a bus, rail or ferry service.
OTSI may publish a report on the outcomes of the investigation where the Chief Investigator believes there may be benefit in sharing that information. These CSIRS Outcome Reports are published online.
