Behaviour Based Safety 2.0

Description

The future of EHS would change hands for safety culture from EHS to non-EHS employees. Managements are terribly fast in business persuasions but terribly slow in matters of HSE implementation and decision making. This differential thinking perspective makes a large space for incidents to settle in. Businesses are hard to sustain without tackling serious HSE issues, the people and businesses would get hit for sure, not coming to an end, failing all of us in our ambitious zero-harm goal. Efforts are there by some but it requires a deeper action orientation. For most organisations, change of safety culture is difficult to manage and confusing to know even how to begin. Passive management practice delays safety culture implementation at sites.
This manuscript is an effort further in addition to the previous books published by the author on the same subject. Positive safety culture means saving your company completely from incidents by involving your employees and workers for minimum five minutes a day in behavioural safety culture. Organisational Behaviour Safety or Behaviour based safety (BBS) 2.0 is holistic, not just focusing on behavioural observations but including overall organisational /work culture antecedents to achieve better outcomes of positive safety pursuit. It is contemporary and much needed change for organisational culture.
