Behaviour change

Take action to change risk-taking behaviour
and improve health and safety

Not all risks can be engineered out of the work environment.

 

Even with the best procedures in place, individuals at work still take short cuts and make mistakes.

 

Sometimes risk-taking behaviour is intentional; in other cases, risks may be taken due to a lack of understanding about a particular hazard, associated controls or inadequate training.

 

For individuals, such risk-taking can result in injury, ill-health or even death. 
For organisations, the costs can include lost time, damage to machinery, litigation, and prosecution. 

 

Delivered by psychologists, HSE's 2 day course - 'Behaviour Change: Achieving Health & Safety Culture Excellence' - gives you insights into the many factors that influence workers' and managers' behaviour.

 

The course demonstrates how behaviour change, leadership and worker engagement can be incorporated into the wider health and safety management system to ensure an integrated, and therefore more effective approach to risk management.

 

In doing so, both the immediate and underlying causes of risk-taking can be tackled head on. 

 

'Behaviour Change: Achieving Health & Safety Culture Excellence' will be held on Wednesday 1 - Thursday 2 May 2019 at HSE's laboratory near Buxton, Derbyshire and aimed at health and safety managers with limited knowledge or experience of behaviour change approaches.

Accident investigation: learn to identify contributory human factors issues


Human factors are environmental, organisational and job factors as well as human characteristics which influence behaviour at work and can affect health and safety.

 

To improve human performance, personal safety, management systems and loss control, effective investigation of the human factors relating to accidents and incidents is essential.

 

Effective accident investigation identifies critical issues using the fewest resources possible, resulting in the implementation of changes to reduce the risk of similar accidents reoccurring, for an appropriate cost.

 

On Wednesday 19 - Thursday 20 June 2019, HSE is running a 2 day training course on Human Factors in Accident and Incident Investigations at its laboratory near Buxton, Derbyshire.

 

This course is designed to give participants an impartial and pragmatic understanding (and experience) of some of the techniques that are available for investigating Human Factors issues.


Using practical exercises it will provide an essential background for accident investigation; discuss the basic principles of various investigation techniques to identify causal and contributory factors; and give an understanding of human performance failure.

 

'Human Factors in Accident and Incident Investigations' is aimed at safety or operations managers, quality assurance professionals, equipment and design specialists, safety advisors, hazard analysts, regulators, inspectors and human factors advisors who are new to accident investigation.
