What is behavioural Safety? It is a programme based on the principles of behavioural psychology, also known as behaviour modification, (BBS) is a technique for modifying behaviour of workers to make them work safely.

• Uses behaviours as performance measure • Removes barriers and motivates safe behaviour

Behavior is what a person DOES to be safe or put themselves at-risk Behavior is objective, observable, and measurable.

Value Added Employee involvement • Reducing injuries/incidents • Intervention/analysis/solutions • Taking ownership/responsibility • Actively caring • Learning the ABC principles (Activators, Behaviors, Consequences)

Value Added • Provides behavior data –facts - that goes beyond common sense • Builds positive attitudes and positive reinforcement • Promotes coaching/education/teamwork • Shifts thinking from priority to value • Working safely without injuries • Supports project schedules and budgets
