Posted By lisa anne holmes We are currently implementing an Incident and Injury Free Program and I would like to deliver a safety quiz to our operatives specifically with behaviour on construction sites in mind. If anyone has information / quizzes with this in mind I would be grateful for your help.

Posted By Barry Cooper Three years ago we ran a DuPont Safety Management Audit training programme with excellent results, with accidents reducing, then we plateaued.
We Introduced an Injury and incident free bavioural safety programme last year. The one we used was a waste of money.
This year we are trying the DuPont "STOP" programme Which is based on observation and correctin at-risk behaviour and praising safe behaviour, initial results look promising.
DuPont programmes are excellent but expensive - but what price can you place on safety?

Posted By Merv Newman See previouse threads on STOP (Spy Today On People) Compare the essential spirit of STOP (Stop people from doing so many BAD things) to real BBS programmes : convince people to do more GOOD things.
please e-mail me direct for further discussions. I'm tired of slanging off my old employers in public. (but I like it)

Posted By I G Hutchings There are many misconceptions about STOP(tm) and other programmes. As a person who now works for DuPont and comes from outside I believe I am in a good position to comment.
From what I have seen, the reason what people term as "behavioural safety programmes" fail is lack of commitment and incorrect application. The behavioural aspect is only one part of the whole management of safety; behaviour is the visible display of the root causes and latent issues in the management structure and commitment.
I think if you really want to do a quiz on "behavioural safety" then maybe it should just be a quiz on how you manage safety in the business, or even better just a quiz about leadership. Do people have quizzes on production? I wouldn't try and separate it out too much as people then think of it all as an initiative as opposed to the just the way we manage our business. I often see people who say "this year we want to do behavioural safety, our systems are now OK". Behaviour is the symptom of the whole framework for safety and leadership commitment. Get those right and you will have consistent results. Get them wrong and you will get short-term results.
Kind regards,
Ian
P.S. Merv, things do change and times move on at DuPont.

Posted By Merv Newman Ian,
totally agree with your point that behaviour is only one part of safety. Research has shown (I can send you a copy of the source, but it made me feel a bit thick-headed) that there are three main areas that must be managed simultaneously : Human behaviour (which includes commitment), management of safety (18000) and technical aspects (machines, chemicals, work environment etc)
So far, I think we agree.
Now correct me if I am wrong, but unless STOP(tm) has been seriously updated its method is to identify and correct unsafe acts and unsafe conditions ie reduce the frequency of such UA/UCs. Other BBS programs work from the other direction : INCREASE the frequency of SAFE behaviours. If this difference is still extant then we are talking of two totally different approaches to safety. I know that the DP approach works consistently inside DP. It also works inside other companies (been there, done that) in particular the DP Safety Management System in which HSG65, BSI8800 and OHSAS 18000 all have their roots.
Having done and taught both sides of the street I much prefer the more positive approach to BBS found in other programmes.
