  1. A Behaviour-Based Safety Approach Learning Lite

  2. Why should we take a behaviour based approach to safety? • We should all go home every day in at least as good a condition as we arrived at work • On the next slide the downward sweep in this curve starts with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and illustrates a decrease in injury events with each change in our legislation, environment, equipment, PPE, processes and systems • In behaviour based safety, the changes we build and implement to encourage good safety behaviours are called interventions • So…If we understand why people do the things they do, identify best practise and learning opportunities and take responsibility for the safety of ourselves and that of others, we can decrease injury events even further

  3. Legislation Technology Rules Accident / Injury Rates Behaviours Time An illustration… The gap between where we are now and zero harm is referred to as the behaviour gap A BBS approach uses top down leadership and bottom up engagement to deliver a safer working environment for our people. An environment where our people are comfortable looking after each other and able to voice concerns without fear of reprisals.

  4. Behaviour vs. Attitude • Attitude and behaviour are two quite different things • Attitude is a person's inner thoughts and feelings • Behaviour is usually an outward expression of attitude • Attitudes drive behaviours but the two are not always related • Our behaviours are everything we do or say • Whilst there is a link between attitude and behaviour, they are not the same thing • In Behaviour Based Safety, we focus on the what and why of people’s actions • We recognise the good and build interventions to address those that can be improved

  5. In Short…. A Behavioural Based Approach to Safety… • Researches best in class safety systems • Identifies learning opportunities and builds training packages • Speaks up for safety • Celebrates success • Builds and Implements interventions • Seeks to understand; • Why people do the things they do? • What we can improve? • How we can lead culture change in the business?

  6. Behaviour Based Safety - What have we learnt? • Accident and injury events have decreased with the introduction of legislation, processes, training, equipment and other safety related changes since 1974 • We have reached a plateau • The gap between where we are now and zero harm is referred to as the behaviour gap • A behaviour is something that is seen or heard • Attitudes may drive behaviours • A behaviour-based safety approach focuses on the what and why of people’s actions • We focus on the positive, communication, feedback, engagement and 360 degree involvement • Safety is everyone’s responsibility
