  15. A Antecedent B Behavior C Consequence The ABCs of Human Behavior

  16. Two Types of Antecedents Hunger, Fatigue, Aggression Stop Signs, Neon Lights, Volume Controls Controlled (artificial) Antecedents Unsolicited Put in place to deliberately influence ourselves or others Are generally less effective than natural antecedents (15%) Can become natural with enough time to associate (classical conditioning) • Natural Antecedents • Generally Helpful • We have very little control over when or how they are generated • Much of our lives are focused on controlling the responses to these antecedents

  17. ANTECEDENTS • Occur before behavior • Communicate expectations • Provide instructions • Cue behavior

  18. Some Examples of Antecedents…

  23. WHAT???????

  24. BEHAVIOR • Desirable Behavior • job behavior which meets expectations and requirements • complies with all safety rules all of the time • Undesirable Behavior • job behavior which does not meet expectations and requirements • fail to comply with all safety rules

  25. CONSEQUENCES

  26. Are either Positive or Negative for the behaviors Predict the probability of future behavior Occur after the behavior Are too powerful to be left to chance Not used often enough CONSEQUENCES

  27. Let’s put it together… Example: • What is the Antecedent when you’re walking into this room? • What is your Behavior? • What is your Consequence?

  28. In the Last 12 Months Have You… • Been Injured? • Fallen Asleep While Driving? • Texted or sent an E-mail While Driving? • Experienced Physical Violence? • Consumed Too Much Alcohol?

  29. In the Last 12 Months Have You… • Had a workplace injury (Major or Minor) • Put yourself or others in harms way at work? • Taken pain medication as a result of workplace activities

  30. In the Last Week Have You… • Become Extremely Fatigued as a Result of Working • Undertaken an Unsafe Act • Engaged in Less Than Ethical Action • Stolen Something

  31. In a Behavioral Safety Culture • It will happen to someone • Focuses on accomplishment • Emphasis is on Behavior not Conditions • Success oriented • People work safely because they want to • Becomes self sustaining • Is truly doing something different

  32. Is Safety Culture the Same Thing as Behavior? • No, but the interrelatedness is undeniable • The culture of the workplace obviously drives the organization's behavior and influences the individual employee’s behavior • Research shows that behavior also influences culture…. Behavior Culture

  33. The “How To” for Behavioral Safety…

  34. OBJECTIVE To discuss how to conduct observations and provide feedback in a manner that promotes safer behaviors Leadership occurs whenever a person tries to influence someone else toward a goal.

  35. The Importance of Management Support • Gives the resources necessary to make the process work • Ensures the process happens when times get tough • Top-Down >> Employees always follow the action of the leader (their supervisor) • Management sets the tone • Shows support and reinforces when the process is working well • What happens when we don’t have management support…

  36. Employee Ownership • Driven by employees after the first series of meetings • Management involvement becomes no more than overseeing the process, not directing it • Employees driven by positive results • Measurement of positive results • Provided with the tools to implement while still sensitive to business-related issues

  37. The Plan • Select Steering Committee • Introduce Risk Assessment and BBS • Conduct Risk Assessment & Select Behaviors • Introduce the process to the employees • Conduct Observations & Give Feedback • Measure the Percent Safe • Resolve barriers

  38. The Steering Committee • Cross-functional • Determines a Process Name, Vision/Mission Statement • Identify Committee Roles/Responsibilities • Delegate Committee Tasks • The Leaders in Implementation of BBS • To become the BBS Champions

  39. The Process (in a nutshell) • Behaviors Selected • Observations Conducted • Feedback Provided • Progress Reports Presented • Barriers Resolved

  40. The Results • Provides management with an overall view of safety • Barriers are resolved in a timely manner (depending on what the issue is) • Observation goals/progress is tracked daily or monthly • Trends are drawn from different areas to see where the process is weak/strong

  41. The Future

  42. Final Thoughts • Recognize the challenges of the organization • Plan, Plan, and Plan • Follow the Plan • Make sure management support is strong • Involve employees at the outset and let them craft the process CELEBRATE ACHIEVEMENTS!

  43. The Keys… • The key is management support • Does management know what BBS is and will they support it completely? • A second key is employee involvement • Do employees have a good relationship with the company? • The third key is planning • Think through every possible angle and hang-up
