Behavior- Based Safety (BBS), which is often described as a bottom-up approach (front line employees), with top-down support from safety leaders / Management. A behavior-based safety approach promotes interventions that are people-focused and often incorporate one-to-one or group observations of employees performing routine work tasks, setting goals carefully and giving timely feedback on safety-related behavior, coaching and mentoring. The initiatives have a proactive focus, encouraging individuals and their work groups to consider the potential for incident involvement, (accidents) and to assess their own behavior as safe or unsafe always, no matter what.
A BBS approach is one which
When performed properly, incident/accident investigation reveals deficiencies either with the system and/or the behaviour of the people involved. It highlights the inherent causes of the incident and the potential for further incidents to take place, thereby allowing a decision to be made on how to prevent similar events from re-occurring. NEXA PSE offers varying levels of incident investigation to their clients.
