16. Effective Activators Activators must be • Specific • Used sparingly • Clear • Vary • Imply immediate consequences

17. Actively Caring Increases Effectiveness Please hold handrail when going up and down stairs Caution! Stairs may be wet. Please hold handrail on stairs. Set a safe example for others. Please hold handrail on stairs

18. Activators are NOT Enough Activators Motivation Behavior

19. Consequences that Motivate • The consequences that motivate behavior are: • Certain to happen • Happen immediately • Have significant impact • Least effective consequences are: • Uncertain- injury or discipline do not occur every time • Delayed- loss of hearing happens over time so the consequence of not wearing ear plugs is delayed • Insignificant

20. Using the ABC Model • Identify the consequences that encourage and discourage the at-risk work practices • Identify the activators • Consider changing and/or modifying both the consequences and/or the activators to create an unconsciously competent work practice

21. Positive VS. NegativeConsequences • What works best? • Positive consequences • Negative consequences • How does each effect the employee?

22. Naturally Rewarding Consequences

23. Feedback Influences Work Practices • Reinforcing feedback increases desired work practices • Corrective feedback decreases undesirable work practices

24. Functions of Feedback • Provides needed information • Provides social support: • co-worker support and acceptance • manager/supervisor approval

25. Guidelines for Receiving Feedback • Be open and receptive • Think BEFORE you react • Be objective/not defensive • Avoid taking a position • Ask for specifics • Actively LISTEN • Work together on potential solutions • Reach an agreement • Say thank you

26. Person Sharing skills and knowledge with each other. Listening, helping in a crisis, recognizing team member contributions. Actively Caring and the Safety Triangle 1 2 Environment Making sure needed equipment is available. Posting warning signs, housekeeping, cleaning other’s work area. 3 Often neglected in traditional safety approaches. Little or no feedback on or encouragement of safe behavior. Behavior Observing co-workers, giving feedback, modeling behavior.

27. Key Points of TSC Creating a Total Safety Culture requires that: • Safety is held as a value by all employees. A value is a belief that does not change with the situation. • Each employee feels a sense of responsibility for the safety of their co-worker as well as themselves. • Each employee performs “Actively Caring” and is willing and able to “go beyond the call of duty” for others.

28. What’s Next? • What do employees need to do to support the shift to a Total Safety Culture?
