Behavior-based safety has an unfortunate reputation as an approach that places blame on the employee while ignoring system and equipment issues. Additionally, many organizations have found launching a BBS process a slow and resource-intensive effort. At the same time, the best elements of BBS – when done right – have proven to work. Learn how you can avoid the pitfalls and leverage the successes of past BBS processes. In this session, we’ll explore a more holistic, exposure-based approach that goes beyond traditional BBS to address all the components of exposure and to impact safety-related decision-making and exposure recognition and response.
