The Business Case

Implementing proven Behavioral Safety processes in your company can dramatically reduce the number of lost-time and minor injuries and their associated costs which detract from your bottom-line.

B-Safe®

Our Approach
Many companies spend significant time and effort improving safety by addressing hardware issues and installing traditional safety management systems. While these methods produce positive initial results, a plateau of accidents typically remains. Although these accidents are often attributed to employee carelessness or poor safety attitudes, most are triggered by deeply ingrained unsafe behaviors.

B-Safe Management Solutions and its behavioral safety programs comprehensively address this problem by looking deeper into actual causes and creating systems and procedures that change attitudes and behaviors.

B-Safe®
The B-Safe^®, an award-winning proprietary method developed by company founder and industry pioneer Dr. Dominic Cooper, lies at the center of the intersections of employees, management systems, the working environment and the company's overall culture. B-Safe® helps to bring these four elements into alignment and function smoothly to dramatically improve your safety performance. Associated benefits include efficiency savings, increased reliability and integrity of plant & equipment, and reductions in insurance premiums.

Hearts and Minds

Winning over people's 'Hearts & Minds' to the safety cause can be difficult. There has to be a consistency of purpose, focus and execution in continually striving to improve safety. In other words, strong 'Safety Leadership' creates and maintains positive safety perceptions among the entire workforce. In turn, this motivates people to behave safely, so that a collective commitment to 'safe working' becomes the norm.

Safety Management Systems

Safety Management Systems are deliberately designed to provide guidelines on how to behave safely in particular circumstances. How well each element is developed, managed and reinforced affects approximately 80 percent of people's daily safety behavior. It makes good commercial sense, therefore, to optimize your company's Safety Management System.

Safety Culture Profiling®

Safety Culture is a complex topic, and most companies do not understand their cultures well enough to succeed with safety culture changes and the challenges this can create. Our professional services are based on our unique, integrated Safety Culture Profiling method that focuses on the interactions between Safety Management Systems, Safety Behavior and people's Hearts & Minds, which together forge a company's Safety Culture.

Safety Behavior

The dilemma of safety is that people often find unsafe behavior is 'rewarding' in some way (e.g. they get the job done quicker, they are more comfortable not wearing PPE, etc), whereas 'Safe behavior' is often punishing (e.g. wearing the supplied PPE is uncomfortable, jobs take longer, etc).

This book is a very useful first introduction to Behavioural Safety, and a good reference book for those already involved.
