What is the best measure of safety performance? Is it the traditional recordable rate, severity rate, cost of accidents, near-miss numbers, physical audit scores, behavioral observations, percent safe, or perception surveys? The best answer may be "All of the above." Achieving safety excellence has taught us that most safety executives are not getting the results they want because they are not measuring what they want. Moreover, it is easy to forget that sometimes an imprecise measurement of the right thing is better than a precise measurement of the wrong thing. This enlightening workshop explores the misconceptions that currently hinder the best and brightest safety leaders from achieving and sustaining measurable safety excellence. Gain insight into a better-practices approach to safety measurements currently being utilized by many of the best in safety. Learning Objectives: • Learn how to measure what is important in safety • Move from lagging to leading indicators • Evolve from leading to transformative indicators • Learn how the current measurements demotivate discretional performance • Learn how to use transformational measurements to motivate performance • Learn how to measure and manage performance, rather than results • Principles of effective measurement systems • A conceptual overview of a Balanced Scorecard for Safety Metrics For more information contact ProAct Safety at 936.273.8700 or info (at) ProActSafety.com For more detailed strategies to achieve and sustain excellence in performance and culture, pick up a copy of our book, STEPS to Safety Culture Excellence, available through WILEY (publisher), Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

This workshop will focus on the attributes that are needed to form a successful Safety Committee. It will also help explore what the Safety Committee will be responsible for to create and sustain a successful safety program. The objectives for this workshop include: 1. Develop a focus on transformational opportunities. 2. Teach the team how to accomplish a Transformational Pareto Analysis that identifies the significant few behavioral and variable leverage points for safety improvement. 3. Develop the committee's capability to focus, develop and prioritize action plans and effectively communicate status and success of efforts. 4. Help the committee to discovery-learn the most important items to focus on and develop ownership needed in a behavioral approach to safety. 5. Create a culturally-shared perception that the site safety committee is successful and worthy of volunteer effort. 6. Create a successful committee that prompts other employees to seek out opportunities to become involved. 7. Create a sense of self-accountability among the team for what they need to do to create the desirable results. 8. Create a team capable of driving internally-led change that produces a significant reduction in incident rates and exposure to risk, but also increases shared-ownership for safety excellence.

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.

As a leader, you may have heard someone at your company say something like the following - usually after an accident or near-miss: "We need to improve our safety culture." The problem is, a "safety culture" isn't something you can just pick up like a new batch of hard hats or ear plugs. It's something that needs to run deeply through your organization at all levels - something that goes beyond mere lip service and inspirational "safety first" posters. So how do you go about getting, or improving, a true culture of safety at your workplace? In this workshop you'll learn how.

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.
