Plan the training and refresher cycle sustaining competence in incident-free safety culture.
Safety Culture: Building an Incident-Free Work Environment
A working programme in incident-free safety culture for managers who have to deliver with existing resources.
Course Overview
Safety performance on incident-free safety culture degrades quietly during periods when nothing goes wrong. Regulators judge the wider occupational health and safety agenda on evidence of application, not on the existence of a document. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on the occupational health and safety capability are used deliberately. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of incident-free safety culture is examined, not just described. Buying a tool rarely fixes the wider occupational health and safety agenda; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about this area of occupational health and safety under scrutiny. It establishes a shared vocabulary for incident-free safety culture so that teams can disagree productively about it. Applied research in occupational health and safety consistently shows that early structure around the practice within occupational health and safety reduces downstream rework. It ends with a prioritised list of changes to this strand of occupational health and safety that the participant is prepared to defend internally.
