This document discusses how to create a strong safety culture in the workplace. It emphasizes that a safety culture should not rely on only one person, but instead involve many employees finding hazards and solutions. It recommends obtaining management buy-in, building trust, conducting assessments, training employees, establishing accountability, and assigning specific safety-related roles and tasks to employees to foster ownership. This employee empowerment and assigning of additional daily safety inspection duties helps form the foundation of a sustainable safety culture.

Building a Safety Culture
This document discusses how developing a strong safety culture can benefit a company. It explains that a safety culture predicts better safety performance by building trust, making safety the top priority, and ensuring employees value safety. This impacts companies positively by reducing accidents, injuries, costs, and turnover while improving productivity. A case study highlights how one mechanical contractor saw significant reductions in its experience modification rate and workers' compensation costs after implementing a robust safety culture program through management commitment, training, and accountability measures. Developing a formal safety program is key to starting a safety culture.
Safety Culture : An Overview
This document discusses safety culture and how to measure and improve it. It defines safety culture as how people think, believe, intend and behave regarding safety. Developing a strong safety culture can sustain safe behaviors because people want it and believe in it. There are four pillars to measure safety culture: technical capability, management infrastructure, people mindset, and leadership. Methods to measure include document review, interviews, surveys, and observations. Measuring safety culture identifies areas for improvement and encourages continuous progress. The document outlines four options to improve safety culture: conducting a safety culture survey, a full diagnostic, a cultural improvement program, and ensuring sustainability of gains.
Safety Culture
Safety culture is the collection of the beliefs, perceptions and values that employees share in relation to risks within an organization, such as a workplace or community.A good safety culture can be promoted by senior management commitment to safety, realistic practices for handling hazards, continuous organisational learning, and care and concern for hazards shared across the workforce
How to Develop a Positive Safety Culture
The document discusses how to develop a positive safety culture in the workplace, outlining that safety culture is defined as the values, attitudes and behaviors that determine an organization's commitment to safety programs. It provides a 7 step process to implement a strong safety culture, including leadership commitment, employee involvement, training, and analysis of safety incidents. The document also discusses how a good safety culture and programs can help lower workers compensation insurance rates through improved experience ratings and other discounts.
The Keys to Unlocking Safety Culture
Establishing and fostering a safety culture has, quite rightly, become a more prominent topic to consider for safety directors. No matter the industry or organization, it is now commonly accepted that safety culture can have a huge influence on the success or failure of a safety management system.
Safety culture is not a program, policy or procedure, it is a reflection of how safety is managed in a workplace. However, it is often difficult to pin down, as it is a somewhat ethereal concept, based on soft components that cannot be easily measured – factors such as accountability, leadership and organizational learning.
This difficulty is at the heart of many safety directors’ struggle – how do you pinpoint your organization’s current safety culture? Which activities are having a positive or negative effect?
In this presentation, Shannon Crinklaw defines safety culture and provide suggestions and ideas around how to recognize and foster a strong safety culture within your organization.

How safety culture can be broken down into components
The different ways that it can be (indirectly) measured
Steps that managers should take to improve it
How using Medgate to automate some safety activities assist in building a safety culture
Safety Culture Power Point
This document discusses strategies for improving safety culture in an organization. It defines safety culture as the set of values that determine how management and employees act at work, rather than simply prioritizing safety. Some recommendations include viewing safety as a continuous process rather than just compliance, analyzing accidents by looking at the systemic factors that led to them rather than blame, integrating safety fully into daily operations, and involving employees in safety decision-making. Lastly, it notes that truly changing an organization's safety culture requires consistent leadership promoting new safety values through education and encouragement over time.
Behavior based safety how thinking safe leads to acting safe
Behavior based safety programs focus on identifying and controlling the root causes of unsafe behaviors through proactive education, motivation, reinforcement, and improvement efforts. The key aspects of developing an effective behavior based safety system include getting employee support, identifying key safety behaviors, conducting observations to provide feedback, and continuously improving the system by setting new safety goals. Behavior based safety uses a systematic approach centered on decision making and leading indicators rather than injuries and focuses on building a positive safety culture.

A POSITIVE SAFETY CULTURE.pdf
A POSITIVE SAFETY CULTURE
A positive safety culture is a shared set of values and practices that guide the behavior of all employees.
It is what the employees do and how they act even when nobody is watching.
CAUSES OF WORKPLACE ACCIDENTS
1. Unsafe Conditions – faulty equipment and dangerous environment
2. Unsafe Acts – actions, attitudes, habits and practices
90% of all workplace accidents are caused by unsafe acts.
Good leaders know that safety rules and equipment are critical to preventing on the job accidents, lost productivity and big loss to a company’s bottom line
HOW TO IMPROVE COMPANY’S SAFETY CULTURE
1. Ensure all top management are on board
2. Create a safety committee made up of employees from all departments and levels
3. Conduct a companywide assessment of your safety culture. This will help identify what is working, what training is needed and help the safety committee to determine the goals and monitor the company’s progress.
4. Training and awareness – Hold sessions with management and supervisors first then use team meetings and regular companywide communication and periodic updates to Train every employee to keep the momentum going. For Training, remember to not only conduct Health and Safety training but also team building and hazard identification and always encourage open communication throughout the process.
5. Incentivize – The safety committee should create a system of accountability and recognition.
Incentives for safe behavior can range from loud of applause in a company, gifts, awards, promotion etc
At the end of the day a positive safety culture is up to all of us and it benefits all of us.
An unsafe act is one man’s job that can put everybody into a disaster, a safe act is everyone’s business.
