safety culture maturity model 


 the journey organisations take as they progress
towards safety excellence.

2. HSE strategy is aligned with the business strategy?

 Businesses require strategies to capture market share, create


shareholder value and provide competitive value for the consumer.
 Safety has both shareholders and customers, and safety excellence is
only possible when there is alignment in the belief that safety is more
about how it provides competitive value and an improvement in quality
of life with the consumers of its efforts.
 Safety, too, competes for market share in the discretionary attention
and engagement of the workforce. 

3. Conflict between a business objective and safety objective?


 ‘Alignment Fallacy’
employees can perceive production to take precedence and this affects
behavioral drivers that lead to shortcuts and risk taking to get the job
done
 paying contractors based on production targets and concurrently
expecting no shortcuts to safe work practices.
 Understanding how production environments encourage risk-
taking behavior and the relationship between such behavior and
the safety culture.
4. difference between ISO 45000, OHSAS, OSHA?
  OHSAS 18001 certification primarily focuses on the occupational risk
of any organisation while the ISO 45001 focuses on both the risk and
opportunities. By doing so, it not only eliminates the chance of future
hazards and also finds opportunities to improve the overall safety
standard.
 ISO 14001 concentrates on managing a company's external
environment for regulatory compliance and reduced pollution. In
contrast, the OHSAS 18001 strives to ensure safety internally in
the workplace by getting both workers and management involved in
risk reduction.
 many differences between these three standards, some obvious ones
are: The OSHA and ANSI standards are written for and by the USA,
whereas OHSAS 18001 was written by organizations representing
Ireland, Australia, South Africa, Great Britain, and other international
organization.
5. Consequence management:
 A consequence management framework, is an internal system or
process that outlines an organisation's approach
to managing compliance and mitigating compliance risk.
6. Build belief in the line organization:
  a set of values that describe the beliefs on which to build the safety
organization.
 Core values on which Integrity And Ethics. Respect & thrust ,
Innovation , Drive.
7. lagging and leading indicators with a few examples:

 Leading indicators look forwards, through the windshield, at the


road ahead. Lagging indicators look backwards, through the rear
window, at the road you've already travelled.
 A leading indicator is a predictive measurement, for example; the
percentage of people wearing hard hats on a building site is
a leading safety indicator. A lagging indicator is an output
measurement, for example; the number of accidents on a building site
is a lagging safety indicator.

9. Risks:
 Generation:
The hazards of the electrical power generation process include
* explosions and burns resulting from unexpected equipment failure.
* Accidents can also occur when proper lockout/tagout procedures are
not followed.
*These procedures are in place to control energy sources. Before
performing maintenance on equipment where the unexpected
energizing, start up or release of stored energy could occur and cause
injury, the equipment must be isolated from the energy source and
rendered inoperative. Failure to properly isolate these energy sources
(lockout/tagout) can result in serious injury or death.
 The major hazards present during the transmission process are
electrical. Failure to maintain proper approach distances or use
appropriate protective equipment (rubber gloves and sleeves) can
result in serious injury or death. Falls also are a source of serious
accidents and can occur during maintenance work on overhead lines
and while working from poles or bucket trucks.
 The distribution system connects the transmission system to the
customer’s equipment. The distribution substation reduces the
transmitted electrical voltage to 2,400–19,920 volts. A distribution
transformer further reduces the voltage. Hazards related to distribution
work also are electrical in nature. However, there is the additional
hazard of working in enclosed spaces (manholes and vaults) when
dealing with an underground distribution system.
