PRACTICAL BEHAVIOR-BASED SAFETY — AN INTRODUCTION - After an interesting cab ride to the convention center, Dr. E. Scott Geller gives a lecture style presentation to the gathered audience on behavior-based safety. Emphasis is placed on the principle of improving safety through behavior and attitude requires interdependence and feedback. Seven basic principles are covered including: 1) focus on observable behavior, 2) look for external factors, 3) direct behavior with activators and motivate with consequences, 4) focus on positive consequences, 5) apply the scientific method to improve intervention, 6) use theory to integrate information and 7) design interventions with consideration of internal feelings and attitudes. A basic scientific method called DO IT - Define, Observe, Intervene and Test is reviewed. Ten axioms to follow to continuously improve safety are defined and discussed. (36 Minutes)

BEHAVIOR-BASED SAFETY SERIES — STARTING THE PROCESS - In order to succeed, behavior-based safety programs must have a strong foundation. This video covers three major topics: 1) steps necessary to begin the behavior-based safety process, 2) who should be involved in the designing process, and 3) proven techniques for successful start-up. Results of the program will be increased efficiency, productivity, morale and profitability. Behavior-based programs are a process of continuous improvement and require a strong commitment from upper management. The five start-up steps, an example of a plant program, proven techniques and a discussion of feedback are included. (13:50 Minutes)

BEHAVIOR-BASED SAFETY SERIES — THE MANAGER'S ROLE - Traditionally it is the manager's job to enforce safety. This is usually accomplished by playing the "safety cop" and providing negative feedback. Behavior-based safety is about attaining desired behaviors through immediate positive consequences. The key components covered are: 1) scientific concepts associated with behavior-based safety, 2) key components of a successful behavior-based safety process, and 3) how to begin the process at your site. Methods of controlling hazards through employee behavior partnerships are discussed. The safety pyramid of person, work environment and behavior are included as well as the "A-B-C" behavior model. A plant example is given. (16:30 Minutes)

BEHAVIOR-BASED SAFETY SERIES — THE KEY COMPONENTS - Making choices is a part of everyone's daily job. Behavior-based safety is about making positive choices. Covered in this program are: 1) what makes up a successful behavior-based process, 2) effective observation techniques, 3) how to deliver effective feedback and 4) how to set improvement goals. The four components of a behavior-based safety process are reviewed. Observation techniques including who should observe, checklists with definitions and examples, notification, following a predetermined route, recording safe and unsafe acts, determining safe percentages, training observers, giving feedback and setting improvement goals are outlined with examples given. The goal is to help employees choose good behavior. (16:50 Minutes)
