2. Behavior Based Safety (rev. 8/04)

5. What is Behavior-Based Safety? Focuses on at-risk behaviors that can lead to injury Focuses on safe behaviors that can contribute to injury prevention BBS is an injury prevention process 1b

8. The BBS Process Advanced Safety Awareness Training –SafeStart Job Task Analysis /Job Safety Analysis (JSA) – Job task sequence/hazards for each step/how to eliminate each hazard. Behavioral Observations – Observe job task looking at safe and at-risk actions –Entered into data base/reports reviewed and action plans developed.

9. There are 3 types of at-risk behavior: conscious behavior habitual behavior unintentional behavior BBS is about unintentional behavior and habitual behavior. To be more specific, it's about how to prevent mistakes or errors you never wanted to make in the first place.

10. THE CONCEPTS OF BBS CAN BE APPLIED ANYWHERE !!! While Driving At Home At Work

11. Reality is… the majority of the time our own Bad Habits and/or our Lack Of Thinking Things Through Cause us to get hurt!!! E

16. Has rushing ever been a factor in an injury or close call? Have you ever or almost fallen asleep while driving your motor vehicle? Have you almost or been hit by another car because the driver didn’t see you? How many of you have almost hit another car because you didn’t see it? Unit 1  BBS

17. Practice: Recognizing the patterns (states to errors) you experience.. Unit 1 E BBS

18. Critical Error Reduction by Triggering on States. Be aware of the state you may be in so corrective actions can be made. Slow down if possible. Plan the job task to increase efficiency and hazard awareness. Think about what you are doing, concentrate on the task at hand.

19. Scenario Relate an incident in the state to error context and share with group. (divide into groups)

21. Job Safety Analysis Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is based on the following ideas: –That a specific job or work assignment can be separated into a series of relatively simple steps. –That hazards associated with each step can be identified. –That solutions can be developed to control each hazard.

22. Job safety analysis four basic steps: Select the job to be analyzed. Separate the job into its basic steps. Identify the hazards associated with each step. Control each hazard.

23. Pre-Task / JSA When are performing JSA’s required? Cards may be used for JSA or Observation or both. PRACTICE EXERCISE

25. Behavior Observable Action – Safe Behavior –At-risk Behavior Measurable Causes most accidents Consequences motivate change

26. Observation and Feedback Observation and feedback goals: –Create a situation where employees will consciously practice safe behaviors. –Reinforce safe behaviors. –Correct worker when at-risk behaviors are observed. –Through feedback look for the cause of at-risk behaviors; consciousness, facility/equipment, disagreement, personal choice, etc.

27. Observation and Feedback Cont. Follow standard procedures for all observations. Observations should be brief but thorough. Focus on actions, showing respect and genuine concern for worker being observed. Keep information confidential, not a disciplinary tool.

28. Observation Procedures Familiarize yourself with the work area and project observing. Ask permission to observe. Observe task, looking at safe work practices listed on the observation cards. Immediately correct any imminent danger situations. –Stop the job and discuss the concerns.

29. Observation Procedures Cont. At the completion of the observation give feedback. –Positively reinforce safe practices. –Give corrective feedback. Record barriers found that may produce at- risk behaviors. For self observations; Plan ahead and record observations immediately after task.

30. Feedback After observation stop the job for a short discussion. Give positive feedback for safe work practices. Give corrective feedback: –Why at-risk practice was used? –Ask if another method, using safe practices, could be used. –Offer ideas. –Review comments recorded on observation cards with employee.

31. Feedback Cont. Thank employee for allowing the observation. Assure the observed employee that the process is confidential and is not used for disciplinary actions.

32. Feedback / Resistance Remember participation is voluntary. Listen to disagreements. Respect their position and find points you can agree on. You may not have all the answers! Don’t act like you do.

33. Observation Form BBS observation types BBS observation form instructions Barrier codes Comments How many observations are expected?

34. Practice exercise: Mock or walk into shop for actual sample observation. Complete including feedback.

35. Data Analysis / Reports Cards are collected (or JSA/BSO sheets are faxed) and sent to the Region office. A BBS file will be available on the “H” drive for observation data entry. Reports will be generated at-risk behavior analysis and to initiate action planning.
