Greetings from the road this week in Barnsley, England. Before we get started with the topic for this week, I wanted to let you know that we have identified the dates for ProAct Safety’s Annual Conference. If you would like to mark it on your calendar, it will be the 6th – 8th of April 2010. I hope you can make it out, as we would love to see you there!
So for this week, we have an 8-step recommendation for responding to an accident after implementing Behavior-Based Safety.
1.Set Realistic Expectations
2.Stress the Importance
3.Stress The sense of Vulnerability
4.Ask the question do we have the behavior or precaution on our checklist that could have helped prevent or minimize the injury?
5.Ask what is the percent safe for that precaution?
6.Ask could we have seen this coming?
7.Ask how long until we can get on top of this?
8.Ask what can I do as a facilitator and coach to help you help us improve safety?
So Terry and I are going to discuss all of these steps in length. With that let’s jump into the discussion about these guidelines…
Greetings! Recording this podcast live in Orlando Florida. Recently we were at NSC's (National Safety Council) 2009 Congress and Expo. We both spoke on some important topics during the conference, and we thought it would be fun to record a live podcast on the show floor; to celebrate 100 podcasts! While this was, we realize it is not the same sound quality you are used to so my apologies in advance for that. If you have any difficulty with the sound, keep in mind that we transcribe these podcasts and place the text (what we call show notes) on our website at www.proactsafety.com and click on insights then podcasts.
This week we wanted to share a very simple three-step coaching model for coaching for safety performance. As you listen to this model consider how easily it can be applied to other performance objectives. I’d like to thank those of you who participated in the live recording and also those who took the time to stop by our booth and say hello. It is always great to meet the listeners to this podcast in person as you are the reason Terry and I record these podcasts. I hope you are sharing these topics and the principles of safety with your coworkers, friends and families.
Greetings recording this week in Peoria, Illinois! We have received some amazingly positive responses from a recent article of ours (Unions and Behavior-Based Safety: The Seven Deadly Sins) that was published in EHS Today in the October 2009 edition. If you would like to view a hard copy and print out the article, please either visit www.EHSToday.com or www.ProActSafety.com. For the podcast this week I have recorded the article so it can be listened to at your leisure. A free webinar on this topic has been recorded and can be found on the ProAct Safety website as well.
Greetings everyone! Just a quick announcement while I’m snowed in at a hotel in Omaha, Nebraska (winter is definitely here…). I have uploaded the Intro to Lean Behavior-Based Safety video to YouTube. Due to the requirement that the videos can be no longer than 10 minutes, I had to break it into six sections. As some of you know I previously uploaded it in its entirety to this site last December, however I have come to realize that this site’s host is having difficulty now playing the previously published videos. You can still download it the full video here: http://www.safetycultureexcellence.com/2008/12/21/intro-to-lean-behavior-based-safety-video-by-proact-safety/.
If you would like to watch the six segments at YouTube, please visit: http://www.youtube.com/ProActSafety. The six sections are below the description.

Borrowing proven techniques from Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and experiences from over 1000 successful implementations, Lean Behavior-Based Safety has proven to be the most efficient and practical approach to an already effective theoretical process.

Greetings everyone, my name is Shawn Galloway, I’m the President of ProAct Safety and the Host of Safety Culture Excellence. As you are aware since January 2008 we have provided free weekly audio podcasts to help you achieve and sustain excellence in safety. Starting in 2010 we will add monthly videos that you can use for your own professional development, or to help motivate the safety element of the culture. This week is the first of many videos to come.
If you only have time to focus on one thing in safety this month, what would it be and how will it help create a safer world for us all? Thank you so much for all that you do to help us create a safer community.
