Advanced Behavior Based Safety: A Safe Investment 2013

In an organization that is stuck in the “false dichotomy” of either/or accident causation, you’ll often hear things such as “If only employees would listen, then they wouldn’t get hurt,” or “If only they would fix that equipment then we wouldn’t be having these injuries.” The BBS approach allows you to delve into the working interface to find out what is really going on. The tool will help supervisory personnel to understand how the correct interaction will analyse employees at risk behaviour and change interventions to safe behaviour.
