Safety PerformanceSafety Performance

An Integral Approach

STEPS

Intent of the Intent of the ConversationConversation

To examine and appreciate the commitments, behaviors, culture, and system requirements of any honest intent to eliminate injury.

If Incident and Injury Free

is not simply another way of saying “Zero Injuries”

What is it?

• It is NOT about statistics

• It is NOT a goal, but rather a journey

• It is NOT a guarantee

• It is NOT a prescription

• It is NOT the elimination of all risks

What Injury-Free is NOT

• It is about caring for one another and demonstrating that you care on a daily basis

• It is about all workers going home safely every day– no kidding

• It is about a mindset intolerant of any injury

• It is about taking responsibility for your own safety and those who work with you and around you

What is Injury-Free?

• It is about taking action when you see potentially unsafe behavior or conditions

• It is about being proactive and asking questions such as, “What is the most dangerous thing that can happen to us on this job/task and how can we mitigate against it?”

• It is about an attitude of choosing to follow the safety rules and procedures (versus having to follow them)

What is Injury-Free?

From the perspective of severity, there is a huge difference between the consequences of a near-miss and of a fatality.

And there is a huge difference in our responses to them.

How We Look at Injuries

From the perspective of cause, the difference between a near-miss and a fatality is 1 second, or 1 mm.

Doesn’t this make our differences in response seem odd?


Are there sources we haven’t confronted?
