Values-Based Safety Training


 

Promote a behavior-based safety culture - Training session engages employees to fully participate in the process of their own safety system.

 

Workplace safety is a combination of three measurable components: the person, their environment, and their values/behavior. Training that brings these three elements together is really the only way workplace accidents can be eliminated. This Values-Based Safety training session helps employees identify and choose a safe behavior over an unsafe one.
This is not a typical behavior-based program. Instead of bringing simple management tools, we offer a values sharing method that transforms culture norms and releases employees to more fully participate in the process of their own safety system, i.e., safety as a way of life. We want to promote making discretionary choices because of shared values.

Valuable input should be acquired in preparation for this training. Provided in this onsite training is a pre-training survey developed to gather current managers’ and supervisors’ perspectives on safety. The survey results are prepared and presented to the selected members of the company leadership who will be attending the conference.

The training program is interactive with entertaining and insightful presentations, including small team discussions and practical application of techniques to real-life situations.
