Safety Culture Excellence®

Greetings from London, England. This week we will discuss the difference between a vision and a goal of zero in safety and the impact they both have on the organizational culture. Have you ever thought about how the culture may react when you set a target, or a reduction goal, or vision for the year and it is not zero? Are you possibly sending the message that some level of injury is okay? Occasionally when we first begin working with a client (even if the client has better than industry average performance) we sometimes find that they really don’t know what zero looks like. When this is the case, then unfortunately we also find that the vision of excellence is so obscure that it can’t be effectively articulated, which means it won’t cascade down or throughout the organization. Just like safety cultures, do you really know what safety culture excellence looks like, other than the absence of failure?
