  4. The Solution • The solution is simple…right? • Bring in the right help • Identify/provide proper training • Motivate personnel to actively participate • Create a true culture of safety • Live Happily Ever After…

  5. The Training • Identify appropriate training and personnel to receive that training • REQUIRED TRAINING • Behavioral Safety Training (6 hours) [discuss war stories, effective incident response/reporting/investigation, effective reporting of near miss/first-aid incidents] • Effective Safety Audit Training (2 hours + 1 hour practical) • Safety Leadership Program Training (12 hours) • Effective Case Management Training (2 Hours) • PERSONNEL • VP/Business Unit Leader • General Manager of Operations • Project Manager • General Superintendent • Site Superintendent • Site Foreman

  6. The Culture Shift • This is the single most important element of an effective safety program! • How do you get there? • Shift mindset of personnel to accept responsibility for safe work practices • Lead by example from the top of the organization • Implement/Enforce the Safety Audit Program • Effectively manage the data collected • Provide positive reinforcement to incentivize safe work (reward for proper behavior)

  7. The Results • The results will be evident in many ways! • Improvements in TRIR • Morale/Recruiting • Higher level of near miss/first-aid incidences reported • True Culture of Safety • CAPE Industrial Services TRIR History • 2008: 7 OSHA Recordables; TRIR = 2.54 • 2009: 2 OSHA Recordables; TRIR = 0.63 (Increased total Manhours by 2% over previous year) • 2010: 1 OSHA Recordable; TRIR = 0.30 (Increased total Manhours by 5% over previous year) • 2011: 2 OSHA Recordables; TRIR = 1.30 (Increased total Manhours by 12% over previous year) • 2012: 0 OSHA Recordables YTD (Expecting to increase manhours by 15%+ over 2011)

  8. The Next Steps • What’s next for CAPE’s Safety Program? • Improve positive reinforcement program • Recurring/refresher training program • Improve reporting of near miss/first aid incidences • More effective integration of new craft employees • Proper response to Accidents/Incidents
