  27. WORKSITE ANALYSIS Continued TANGIBLE INDICATORS: • Accident Records • Behavior Observations • Production Records • Personnel Records • Employee Surveys • Policies and Procedures

  28. BEHAVIOR PRINCIPLES WHAT IS BEHAVIOR? Behavior Is What a Person Does or Says. What Causes a Person to Take This Particular Behavior or Course of Action Depends On Other Influencing Factors. Attitude and Situational Conditions Cause The Particular Behavior.

  29. Motivation. Intelligence. Emotions. Experience. Attitude Situational Conditions. BEHAVIOR PRINCIPLES Continued • What Influences Behavior? • Desire • Need. • Abilities. • Skills. • Ambition. What Else Can You Think Of?

  30. Determine What Motivates The Behavior. -- Lack of Training? -- Working Conditions? -- Personal Problems? Work-Related Problem? - Try and Fix It. Personal Problem? - Work Within Company Resources Find Positive Ways To Discourage Unacceptable Behavior. BEHAVIOR PRINCIPLES Continued • When The Reason For Behavior is Not Known.

  31. OBSERVING BEHAVIOR OBSERVING BEHAVIOR Behavior Must Be Observed to Begin to Understand Current Behavior and Develop Lists of Acceptable (Safe) Behaviors. The Lists of Acceptable Behavior Will Be Used in Determining Safe Behaviors in the Future.

  32. To Effectively Observe Behavior: OBSERVING BEHAVIOR Continued • 1. Establish Criteria For Observations. • 2. Observe Workers Frequently at Various Work Times. • 3. Observe Workers For a Few Minutes Each Time. • 4. Employees Should Know They Are Being Observed. • 5. Employees Should Know Their Behavior is Recorded. • 6. Know the Safe Behaviors You Are Looking For. • 7. Develop a Checklist If Necessary. • 8. Constantly Compile and Compare Observations. • 9. Follow-up on Observations.

  33. REMEMBER OBSERVING BEHAVIOR Continued Someone Is Always New or Young or Unfamiliar With Why They Are Being Observed. Determining Safe Behaviors Is a Never-Ending Process. Your List of Safe Behaviors Will Vary by Job or Department and Will Change As Work Conditions or Equipment Change.

  34. EXAMPLES OF SAFE BEHAVIORS - FORKLIFT SAFETY OBSERVING BEHAVIOR Continued • Approaches load slowly and straight-on • Stops when forks are about a foot from load • Safely engages pallet • Checks mast height for obstructions • Slowly/safely picks up load with load against backrest • Checks rear for pedestrians, traffic, obstructions • Stops when forks are about a foot from load • Checks mast height for obstructions • Safely raises forks to desired height • Safely engages pallet and tilts to safe angle • Slowly and safely picks up load and lowers to safe height

  35. EXAMPLES OF SAFE BEHAVIORS - FORKLIFT SAFETY OBSERVING BEHAVIOR Continued • Approaches slowly and straight-on • Stops when forks are about a foot from load • Checks mast height for obstructions • Safely raises forks to desired height • Safely drives forward until load is squarely over stack • Safely tilts to safe angle and places load on stack • Slowly and safely levels forks within inside of pallet • Checks rear for pedestrians, traffic, obstructions • Slowly and safely backs out and lowers to safe height • Plans load route based on current path obstructions • Carries load with load tilted back to safe angle

  36. BEHAVIOR REINFORCEMENT WHAT IS BEHAVIOR REINFORCEMENT? Reinforcement Is Any Consequence That Increases the Likelihood That the Behavior It Follows Will Occur in the Future. In Other Words, If You Promote a Behavior and Make Someone Feel Good About Performing That Behavior, or Give Them a Reason to Perform That Behavior, Its Occurrence in the Future Will Likely Increase.

  37. REINFORCEMENT BEHAVIOR REINFORCEMENT Continued Acceptable Behavior Must Be Constantly Reinforced. Never Miss an Opportunity to Give a Pat on the Back for Acceptable Behavior. People usually Respond to Positive Reinforcement.

  38. Reinforcement Considerations: BEHAVIOR REINFORCEMENT Continued • 1. Reinforce Frequently, and In Public. • 2. Reinforce ONLY for Acceptable Behavior. • 3. Reinforce Immediately, Never Wait. • 4. Reinforce During the Safe Behavior if Possible. • 5. Be Specific About the Reinforced Behavior. • 6. Give Non-Verbal Positive Cues. (Nods, Smiles etc.) • 7. Be Totally Positive. • 8. Be Sincere. People See a Lot, But Don’t Say a Lot. • 9. Accentuate The Positive.

  39. Works For a Determinant Period Only. Once an Accident Occurs, No Incentive Remains. Usefulness Usually Degrades Over a Period of Time. Doesn’t Permanently Alter Unacceptable Behavior. Diminishes Supervisory Control. LOST TIME ACCIDENTS 0 BEHAVIOR REINFORCEMENT Continued • Rewarding For No Accidents.

  40. Is The Individual Due a Raise? Is a Salary Review Needed For The Job? Is The Amount of “Piecework” Pay Appropriate? Is There a Bonus Program? Are There Monetary Rewards for Safe Behavior? Are There Other Incentive Rewards for Safe Behaviors? Is There a Safety Suggestion Program? HOW MUCH OF A MOTIVATOR IS MONEY? MOTIVATIONAL TECHNIQUES • Money and Behavior. What Else Can You Think Of?

  41. This Approach Holds That Individuals Can Be Motivated by Properly Designing Their Work Environment and Praising Their Performance. Holds That: Punishment for Poor Performance Produces Negative Results. Goal Setting With Employee Participation Is Essential. Periodic Re-Evaluation Is Essential. Requires Frequent Work Environment Adjustments. Requires Detailed Planning and Training of Workforce. MOTIVATIONAL TECHNIQUES Continued • Positive Reinforcement and Behavior.

  42. People Are Motivated by Being Consulted on Actions That Effect Them. People Know Their Jobs. What Safety Program Changes Can They Bring to the Work Environment? People In Many Cases Know the Safety Problems and Safety Solutions. Just Ask. Participation In The Safety Program Satisfies Affiliation and Acceptance Needs. Workers Must Know That Final Decisions Are Reserved to Management. But Tell Them Why! MOTIVATIONAL TECHNIQUES Continued • Employee Participation and Behavior.

  43. ATTITUDE MOTIVATION CHANGES ATTITUDE AND ATTITUDE DRIVES BEHAVIOR When a Persons Attitude Changes, His or Her Behavior Will Typically Follow. Assuming He or She Has Adequate Knowledge of the Safe Working Conditions in the Work Environment. When You Eliminate Every Other Reason for Unacceptable Behavior, What Is Left It Attitudinal.

  44. ATTITUDE IS IMPORTANT SAFETY AS PART OF THE WORK ENVIRONMENT If a Person Understands That His or Her Safety at Work is Controllable in a Measurable Way, Acceptance of Safety as an Essential Part of the Work Environment Will Be Increased. Safe Attitudes and Behaviors Will Naturally Follow. AND!

  45. ATTITUDE IS IMPORTANT Continued SAFETY AND PEER SUPPORT Once Safe Attitudes are a Normal Element in the Work Environment, Behavior Will Be Influenced. Then, Peers and Coworkers Expect Each Other To Practice Safety as a Part of Work and Not a Requirement of Work. At This Point Coworkers Will Expect Each Other’s Protection and Accident Rates Will Decrease.

  46. ATTITUDE IS IMPORTANT Continued SUSTAINING SAFE BEHAVIOR Management Is Responsible to Promote Safety. Everyone is Responsible For Sustaining a Safe Work Environment. Attitude Is the Key To Sustaining a Safe Work Environment.

  47. GOOD ATTITUDE IS PREVENTION “It is estimated that in the United States, 97% of the money spent for medical care is directed toward treatment of an illness, injury or disability. Only 3% is spent on prevention.” Good Attitude = A Healthier Workforce. Self-Help Manual For Your Back H. Duane Saunders, MSPT by Educational Opportunities

  48. Focus on The Individual - Try To Please Everyone. Good Behavior Can Be Enhanced By Accommodating The Majority. Please As Many People As Is Practical. Bad Behavior Should Be Studied To Determine Causation. THE HUMAN FACTOR NO ONE IS AS AN AVERAGE PERSON Rules, Policies, Schedules, Jobs Etc., Must Accommodate The Majority.

  49. Always Treat People With Respect. Always Treat People Equally. Assume People Will Talk. It Will Keep You Straight. Never Ridicule Good Behavior In Jest. Remember, It Takes Two To Argue. Draw a Line. Walk Away From Conflict, And Address It Later. Argue Constructively If You Must Argue. If Safety Is Critical To The Issue, Stand Your Ground. THE HUMAN FACTOR Continued PERSONAL DIGNITY IS CRITICAL TO GOOD BEHAVIOR People Must Be Treated With Respect No Matter What Their Position In the Company.

  50. Reinforce Good Behavior. Discourage Bad Behavior. Learn Your Employees Strengths and Weaknesses. Learn Strengths, Reward Them and Use Them. Learn Weaknesses and Help To Improve Them. Understand That Home Life Can Overflow Into Work. Be Prepared To Deal With Unpredictable Situations. Understand Group Behavior Verses Personal Behavior. THE HUMAN FACTOR Continued CONSIDER THE WHOLE PERSON People Are the Sum Total of Their Experience, Combined With Their Genetic Make-up.
