Brookhaven National LaboratoryCollider-Accelerator Department FY06 Summary of Safety Feedback and Improvement Sessions Ed Lessard February 13, 2006
Safety Survey • 2004 Survey and Group Discussions: • 17 managers • 27 supervisors • 88 workers • 2006 Survey and Group Discussions: • 20 managers • 42 supervisors • 232 workers
Survey Results • Technique delivers four levels of insight: • The absolute answers yield important information • Comparison among management, supervision and workers • Results can be compared over time to assess progress • Results can be compared to those of other companies
Safety Model in Best-Safe Companies 3 Root Factors (management commitment, line responsibility for injuries and worker involvement) + 3 Drivers (clear rules, competent ESH specialists and comprehensive safety systems) = 3 Outcomes (safe equipment and facilities, safe-aware people and an excellent injury record)
Conclusions • Safety performance is moving toward excellence • Staff are satisfied with safety performance • Safety organization excellent • Worker involvement excellent • Competent group of safety specialists approaches excellence • Comprehensive safety systems approaches excellence • Concerns associated with equipment and facilities • Supervisors do not buy into ‘all injuries can be prevented’ • Clearer rules and practices needed
Recommendations • Derek should continue to set zero injuries as the Department’s direction • C-AD managers and supervisors must set this same demanding goal • Supervisors must re-examine their belief about preventing all injuries • Safety rules must be well communicated and confined to a small set • Safety rules should be distinguished from good practices • Regular post-job feedback sessions need to be implemented • Involve managers, supervisors and workers
