Understanding Your HSE Culture

Understanding Your Culture What A tool that helps to identify gaps in local HSSE culture and agree plans to drive performance improvement Why For the welfare of the workers as well as their supervisors we need to achieve Goal Zero How By providing a clear view of both the present and the desired culture, by identifying behaviours that can help to reduce the gap, and by creating a personal Action Plan that leads towards improvement

Company Culture A strong culture is where everyone: Value safety Expect the unexpected Know what to do Are open to suggestions Want to make a difference Believe their behaviour makes a difference for others And Managers in particular: Lead by example See the behaviour of others as reflecting their leadership

HSE Performance over time Time Incident rate Technology and standards HSE Management Systems Improved culture Engineering improvements Hardware improvements Safety emphasis E&H Compliance Integrated HSE-MS Reporting Assurance Competence Risk Management Behaviour Visible leadership / personal accountability Shared purpose & belief Aligned performance commitment & external view HSE delivers business value

GENERATIVE (High Reliability Orgs.) HSE is how we do business round here CALCULATIVE we have systems in place to manage all hazards The Safety Culture Ladder

Culture Ladder – Short exercise “The lawyers/regulator said it was OK” “Of course we have accidents, it’s a dangerous business” “Fire the operator who had the accident” PATHOLOGICAL “We are serious, but why don’t they do what they’re told?” Endless discussions to re-classify accidents “You have to consider the conditions under which we are working” REACTIVE “We cracked it!” Lots of audits HSE advisers chasing statistics CALCULATIVE Resources are available to fix things before an accident Management is open but still obsessed with statistics Procedures are “owned” by the workforce PROACTIVE Chronic unease – there is always a possibility for an incident Safety seen as a profit centre New ideas are welcomed GENERATIVE

Do you need to rethink your “I...” statements?

Group Work I will do regular walkabouts to catch people working unsafely – (Reactive) I will make sure everyone uses the PTW properly and all the right signatures are in place - (Calculative). I will make sure everyone at each toolbox talk talks about their risks and how they will manage them – (Proactive) “I...” statements How can I change my behaviour to shift the culture to the next level upwards?
