This session is designed to be an introduction to the rationale and practice of BBS for newcomers and a thorough review for participants at the workforce and management levels.
The supporting roles of management and supervisors will be discussed. The support roles in BBS are less active than the participants' roles, yet more critical for success and sustainability. In addition to understanding what BBS is and how it works, managers and supervisors need to know the rationale for having a process and the strategies for ensuring it is successful.
Being well grounded in the principles and practices is a basic need for success to both those who are implementing or renewing BBS processes. The course will cover every major facet of BBS including the following:
- The philosophy and science behind BBS
- The rationale and ROI (return on investment) of BBS
- What leads to union resistance and how to involve unions for support
- Selection criteria and functions of a BBS Steering Team/Committee
- Time-away-from-work requirements of Steering Team members and Observers
- Key roles, responsibilities and expectations (RREs) of those participating in the process
- Manager's and Supervisor's support roles
- The responsibilities and benefits of employees in a BBS environment
- Start-up cycles for BBS from implementation to maturity
- How to communicate BBS to the workforce
- Support and resources needed by the process to ensure success
- How to posture BBS in relation to other safety efforts and programs
- How BBS impacts safety culture and how to utilize BBS as a safety culture building tool
- How to keep the process results oriented
- How to guarantee process sustainability
- How to refresh and renew an existing BBS process
- Attendees will be thoroughly versed on the basics of BBS to either return to a project or attend the Annual BBS Conference with purpose and focus.

Use the latest Behavior-Based Safety Technologies for spearheading safety process improvement, borrowing proven techniques from Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and experiences from over 1,500 successful implementations.
Create a customized plan to assess and improve site and/or organizational safety culture. Common myths about safety culture will be dispelled and a good working definition will be developed to empower understanding and customization. Assessment methodologies will be discussed and compared and each participant will see how to best determine the cultural strengths and improvement opportunities.
Based on the assessment findings, plans will be formulated to find the most practical and effective strategies to build on cultural strengths and address weaknesses. Opportunities will be investigated to utilize other site improvement initiatives to aid in the cultural improvement plans. All plans will conclude with measurement strategies to ensure long-term change viability and early identification of problems.
