I call it positive Safety culture or Company DNA.
A safety culture in an organization is like the organization's DNA, it's a fundamental part of who they are and how they operate.
A strong safety culture:
- Encourages open reporting of incidents and near misses without fear of blame
- Fosters a sense of shared responsibility for safety among all employees
- Prioritizes safety in all aspects of the business
- Continuously learns and improves from experiences
- Embeds safety into the organization's values, beliefs, and behaviors
- Encourages employee participation and empowerment in safety efforts
- Focuses on finding solutions rather than assigning blame
This type of culture creates an environment where safety is everyone's responsibility, and everyone feels comfortable speaking up and reporting concerns. It's a proactive approach that prioritizes prevention and continuous improvement, rather than reacting to incidents after they occur. By making safety a core part of the organization's DNA, companies can create a sustainable and effective safety culture that benefits everyone.
As a Safety professional, I realised that we too are to blame as a number of us embark of blaming or rather blame game instead of looking foe solution.
I checked myself many years ago and I embarked on being on the positive side .
finding solutions.
