Health and Safety performance at our place improved last year (40% drop in lost time accidents....down from a heck of a lot to still far too many). We hoped that the various things we were doing - risk assessments, employee rep involvement and training were working and expected the same degree of imporvement this year.

Sadly not to be and figures this year are very much as last.

My new General Manager has asked me for a 'program' to generate further improvement.

What we are looking for is a system to both improve operators awareness of hazards and encourage safe working (behavioural safety) and to imporve reporting of hazards.

I am looking at some systems already - STOP - HASTAM - John Ormerond and would like to hear peoples experience of these systems and anything else that people are using so I can get as broad a cross section of input before deciding how to start.

Any contacts and/or websites would be very useful too

thanks

all
