Building Cultural Maturity in Safety and Risk

April 27, 2018 by Dave Whitefield Leave a Comment

Building Cultural Maturity in Safety and Risk Introduction – The Culture Paradox Culture represents a paradox for many organisations. While most people can readily comment on it (it’s good/bad, supportive/toxic, weak/strong), few can meaningfully define it. Common attempts tend to be vague and focus on culture as behaviour (“Culture is the way we do things […]

By What Method?

April 22, 2018 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

By What Method? One of the strange beliefs of Safety is that the publication of injury statistics invokes change? Ah, how does it do that? Since when did information become motivation? When one looks at the many promises made in the safety industry and all the propaganda about zero, injury reduction etc. there are three […]

Transdisciplinary Safety

March 31, 2018 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

Transdisciplinary Safety In the latest issue of The Risk Magazine  in the Future of Risk Edition (No. 3 March 2018, p.44) I argued that the future of risk must embrace transdisciplinarity (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transdisciplinarity ). It is interesting that the binary view that currently dominates safety even interprets this transdisciplinary call as an ‘either-or’ view. A transdisciplinary […]

Safety as Policing

December 21, 2017 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

Safety as Policing One of the principle factors recognized by the World Congress on Safety 2017 was the problem of ‘safety as policing’. The Congress recognized that the strategy of ‘policing’ doesn’t work and is ineffective (p.10). It states: ‘The OHS Professional’s role should be reconceptualized as a continuous improvement expert … as opposed to […]

Safety Culture does Exist

January 27, 2017 by Dr Rob Long Leave a Comment

Safety Culture does Exist The safety industry was created by Acts of Parliament across Australia in the 1980s. In a very short time a safety industry developed with invested power and a range of characteristics that clearly demonstrate that the safety industry has a culture. Indeed, it would seem strange to describe any activity or […]

You Should Actively Encourage Poor Safety in the Workplace

November 16, 2016 by Dave Collins 17 Comments

I was asked recently for something different that could be done for a safety awareness session. I referred the person to this article from about 5  years ago – they tried it and apparently it worked brilliantly! What do you reckon? When it was first published many years ago (I cringe at some of the […]

Good Luck to the Luck Deniers

September 5, 2016 by Dr Rob Long 5 Comments

Everyone knows that to be successful at gambling you rely on knowing the odds, taking risk and LOTS of luck! Same with everything we do in life and at work. The ZERO HARM advocates think they can control or supress everything, including risk, luck and human fallibility. But how many LTIFR free periods are the […]

Anthropocentric Safety

June 4, 2016 by Dr Rob Long 4 Comments

“the floggings shall continue until morale improves” It is simply delusional to think or espouse that people can be controlled or enforced into total compliance. A mechanical approach to safety, consumed by zero harm, absolutes and statistics is simply alienating, non-inspiring and de-motivational. If you are either smart enough or experienced enough to agree then […]
