Day 1: Introduction to Safety Culture

1.1 What is Safety Culture?

• Definition: Safety culture refers to the shared values, beliefs, and practices regarding safety within an organization. It influences how safety is prioritized, communicated, and integrated into daily operations.
• Importance: A positive safety culture ensures that safety is viewed as a core value rather than an afterthought, reducing accidents and improving morale and productivity.

1.2 Key Components of Safety Culture

• Commitment: Leadership and employees must be fully committed to safety.
• Communication: Open, transparent communication channels are necessary for reporting hazards and discussing safety improvements.
• Participation: Involvement of all employees in safety initiatives enhances engagement and ownership.

1.3 The Safety Culture Maturity Model

• Understanding the journey from a reactive (safety is only addressed after incidents) to a proactive culture (safety is part of everyday practices).
• Key stages: Reactive, Compliance, Proactive, and Generative.

1.4 Case Studies: Safety Culture Success Stories

• Review real-world examples from industries like oil and gas, construction, and manufacturing where safety culture has drastically reduced incidents.

Day 2: Engaging Leadership and Employees

2.1 The Role of Leadership in Safety Culture

• Leadership Commitment: Leaders set the tone for safety culture by prioritizing safety in decision-making, resource allocation, and role modeling.
• Safety Leadership Development: Training senior management and frontline supervisors to champion safety initiatives.

2.2 Engaging Employees in Safety Initiatives

• Techniques for Employee Engagement: Involve workers in safety committees, conduct safety walkthroughs, and reward safe behavior.
• Creating Ownership: Encourage employees to take responsibility for their own and their colleagues' safety.

2.3 Safety Communication

• Effective Channels: Ensure that safety information is communicated in clear, accessible ways—through newsletters, meetings, or digital platforms.
• Overcoming Barriers: Address language, literacy, and cultural barriers to ensure everyone understands safety protocols.

Day 3: Behavioral Safety and Change Management

3.1 Understanding Behavioral Safety

• Behavioral Psychology in Safety: How human behavior affects workplace safety. Understanding why people take risks and how to influence safer behaviors.
• Safe vs. Unsafe Behaviors: Identifying behaviors that contribute to accidents and implementing corrective measures.

3.2 Changing Unsafe Behaviors

• Behavioral Observation and Feedback: Using observation checklists to identify unsafe behaviors and provide immediate, constructive feedback to encourage improvement.
• Behavior-Based Safety Programs (BBS): Structured programs that focus on changing employee behavior through observation, feedback, and positive reinforcement.

3.3 Change Management for Safety Culture

• Strategies for Implementing Change: Plan and execute safety culture change using a structured change management process (e.g., ADKAR model: Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, and Reinforcement).
• Overcoming Resistance: Address employee concerns and fears about change, and emphasize the benefits of improved safety for both personal well-being and organizational success.

Day 4: Proactive Safety Management and Risk Mitigation

4.1 Proactive vs. Reactive Safety Approaches

• Proactive Measures: Identifying and addressing hazards before they lead to accidents. This includes regular safety inspections, audits, and near-miss reporting.
• Reactive Approaches: Addressing safety concerns after an incident occurs—while necessary, this should not be the primary method.

4.2 Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment

• Methods: Learning to identify hazards using techniques like Hazard and Operability Study (HAZOP), Job Safety Analysis (JSA), and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA).
• Risk Assessment: Assigning risk levels based on the probability and severity of hazards and determining appropriate controls.

4.3 Developing Safety Procedures and Protocols

• Designing Effective Procedures: Create clear, concise, and actionable safety procedures that all employees can follow.
• Implementing Protocols: Train employees in new safety protocols and ensure compliance through regular audits and assessments.

Day 5: Monitoring, Evaluation, and Continuous Improvement

5.1 Safety Performance Metrics and KPIs

• Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Identify the key metrics to measure safety performance, such as Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR), Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR), and near-miss reporting.
• Benchmarking and Goals: Establish clear, measurable safety goals and track progress over time to identify areas for improvement.

5.2 Safety Audits and Inspections

• Types of Audits: Learn how to conduct different types of audits (internal, external, process-specific) and use findings to improve safety practices.
• Tools for Conducting Audits: Explore digital tools and techniques to streamline the audit process and gather actionable data.

5.3 Continuous Improvement in Safety Culture

• Kaizen and PDCA Cycles: Implementing continuous improvement methodologies such as Kaizen (continuous small changes) and Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycles to improve safety performance over time.
• Best Practices for Sustaining a Positive Safety Culture: Learn how to embed safety into the organizational DNA through ongoing training, leadership commitment, and employee involvement.

5.4 Final Group Exercise

Developing an Action Plan: Participants will work in groups to develop a tailored action plan for improving safety culture in their respective organizations. The plan will focus on the elements covered in the course, ensuring practical takeaways.

BTS attendance certificate will be issued to all attendees completing minimum of 80% of the total course duration.
