At G.I.S., the safety and health of our employees, the protection of the environment, and the satisfaction of our partners in safety and service are the companies’ greatest responsibilities. See below overview to better understand our 3 tiered approach to Safety Culture:

Nothing is more important than the people's health, safety, and well-being. Prioritize developing a safety culture, and a safety-first mindset.

We often hear or read about human-centered or people-centered approach of safety. This is a way of describing how EHS policies are formulated, designed, thought and practiced. But a human-centered or people-centered approach immediately leads to a question. Is a human-centered or people-centered approach of safety behavioural, psychological or sociological? These nuances might matter. They imply different interpretations of situations, and therefore different options when it comes to action. They are not necessarily incompatible, but it is worth knowing about the differences. In this article, I show how a sociological analysis pays attention to relations, to interactions, which is one option in terms of human-centered or people-centered approach. I developed a visual to help think about this relational or interactionist perspective (see below).

Very thought-provoking... workplace safety is examined through several different lenses, but you could also see this as an exploration of project/process/production difficulties brought on by a variety of factors (history, culture, work flow, leadership style, etc.) At the moment, I'm seeing it in terms of of value streams, constraints management, and system dynamics. Edit: and I'm thinking about the old idea of "asynchronous evolution" in sociotechnical systems.
