Safety: It Isn’t Rocket Science … or Is It?
Transcript of Safety: It Isn’t Rocket Science … or Is It?
CIn
Developing a safety culture that works in business can be difficultwhen P-Q-P, (Profits, Quality, Production) don’t involve and embraceit. The 1986 Space Shuttle Challenger disaster identified an alarmingbehavior that everyone does and needs to be recognized andchanged to effectively integrate safety into the business model. Thispresentation will identify that behavior and relate it to effective acci-dent investigation techniques and also discuss how common lossanalysis efforts usually fall short of identifying the areas that trulyneed to be focused on to reduce injuries or loss exposures.

Normalization of Deviance
• Natural human tendency to take a shortcut (especially in pressure situations)
• To accept a lower standard of performance– Nothing bad happens– Next time, tempted to do again – Lose sight of deviance
• Bar IS lowered

#IRMI2016
Normalization of Deviance
• Accepting something never expected, never understood
• When your life is on the line, you want the best team supporting you
• Not one that takes shortcuts
15
#IRMI2016
Normalization of Deviance
• Predictable surprises
• NO shortcuts
• If you feel you need to take a shortcut, take a timeout

What’s Your Safety Culture?
• Creating a safety culture
• Takes time
• Maybe years
• A series of continuous process improvement steps
• Normalization of deviance will DESTROY your culture
25
#IRMI2016
What’s Your Safety Culture?
• You have the best orientation program
• Your new employee goes on the floor to an “anti-culture” atmosphere
• How long before your training has a Normalization of Deviance experience?
• How long before that new employee is following what everyone else is doing?

What Is an Accident?
• An undesirable event that results in harm to persons, damage to property, or both, usually occurring suddenly and unexpectedly, sometimes having taken significant time to reach the point of occurrence
• Accidents can be major job hindrances.
35
#IRMI2016

36

Accident Investigations
• Purpose?

39
#IRMI2016
Why Conduct Investigations?
• Objectives Improve supervisory skills by presenting a method—a formal
approach—for conducting effective accident investigations. Instill the importance of investigating accidents to identify true
operational inefficiencies. Eliminate a normalization of deviance mindset.
40
22
#IRMI2016
Accident Investigation Failures
• Poorly completed
• Fault-finding
• Wrong people
• Miss the true operational issue
41
#IRMI2016
Responsible Condition
• The condition(s) that, if eliminated, should result in no further repetition of the particular loss, accident, incident, or other operational problem … under the same set of circumstances

Is Your Safety Incentive Program Discriminatory?
• Behavior-based programs are effective Reinforce safe behavior Provide incentives to employees or teams who demonstrate safe
behavior
Behavior-based programs are not tied to incident rate The goal is safe behavior, not a low incident rate Employees are encouraged to be active participants in the safety
program
