Incident Reporting & Investigation • Blame is NEVER a healthy approach to workplace safety • Employees are never COMPLACENT or LAZY if they think there is a reasonable chance they may be injured • In order to improve safety, REALLY IMPROVE SAFETY we need 1) System’s Based Thinking 2) A complete shift of motivation by fear to one of accomplishment and engagement 3) A relentless and urgent approach to ensuring that BLAME is removed from the equation completely and forever! • Allow the employees to be a driving force in a transformed Positive Safety Culture
