Please, if you are going to do behavioural safety, you really need to be committed, not just you but upper management. Everyone needs to 100% buy into otherwise it'll fail. Don't do a half ar**d course yourself on it. Get someone that knows how to deliver it to employee and management level. You can be a driving factor yourself but then you really need Supervisors to buy into it. - Get someone to develop a course for both employees and management - Get people on board and make them part of it - Get people to buy into it that much that they are the driving force - Go through all documents with the working group and some staff. - Good luck. It's not easy, it's very time consuming, it requires a lot of commitment.... It is a long hauled process but worth it in the end if it all works out.

Understand the sentiment Godscrasher but I think what you have stated is pretty much a given in health and safety regardless. Smart - Along with the pre-mentioned link by teh boy, which is very good, I would also run a search on behavioral psychology and you will find numerous teaching aids to help with trainig

If you don't have management already on even half a buy in with the regulations, I wouldn't even attempt to try out behavioural safety.

As you have not provided any other information regarding the safety maturity level your organisation is at, we can only speculate. Behavioural Safety initiatives only succeed if there is real, ongong commitment at the top levels and a buy-in at ALL levels. The info from Behavioral-Safety ( Dr Dominic Cooper) and RyderMarsh ( Dr Tim Marsh) websites provides the underlying information you will need.
