12. Drivers For Corporate InitiativesDrivers For Corporate Initiatives
Behavioural causes: Working environment causes:
• Body mechanics (30)
• Eyes on task (18)
• Eyes on path (17)
• Inappropriate PPE (7)
• Unsafe work practice (27)
• Inherent hazard (16)
• Lack of equipment (8)
• No equipment cause (8)• Inappropriate PPE (7)
• Work-around (7)
• No behavioural cause (6)
• Unknown (4)
• No equipment cause (8)
• Ineffective safety device (7)
• Unknown (7)
• Equipment positioning (6)( )
• Deliberate violation (1)
q p p g ( )
• Poor housekeeping (5)
• Mechanical failure (4)
• Insufficient fault-tolerance (2)
Conclusion: It is important to target both behaviours
and problems in the working environment to reduceand problems in the working environment to reduce
accident frequency
13. EHS Learning Events: an analogyEHS Learning Events: an analogy
• Working in industry is a bit like swimming in a shark-infested sea
– Workers are like the swimmers
– Sharks are like the risks
• There are two realistic strategies that stop the sharks eating the
swimmers
1. Show the swimmers how to avoid the sharks
2. Identify and remove the sharks
• you need a system that both helps the swimmers identify the sharks• … you need a system that both helps the swimmers identify the sharks
and flags the sharks so they can be removed
14. EHS Learning Event Observations
Aim:
Influence employee behavior throughInfluence employee behavior through
increased reporting of low-level events and
conditions
Objectives:
• Encourage employees not to adopt at-riskg y
behaviors
• Learn more about issues within the working
environment and make improvements beforeenvironment and make improvements before
accidents happen

Safety Incident Pyramid Applied to Process Safety
• Depicts the relationship between
the incident severity and
frequency
• Top of the pyramid indicators are
more “lagging” or outcome /
results oriented
• Lower tiers of the pyramid are
“leading” indicators of
performance at higher tiers,p g ,
resulting in a continuum of leading
and lagging indicators
• Bottom of the pyramid indicators are• Bottom of the pyramid indicators are
more “leading” or predictive in nature
17. Summary

In regards to site EHS conditions & effectiveness
of initiatives
• TAP develops employee Delivering EHS meetings, JHAs, “What-If” Drills &

fosters employee confidence.
• TAP enables all

Champions within the
EHS process
& performance based regulatory programs like
PSM and voluntary certifications (VPP, ISO, RC,
OHSAS, etc.)
