An Injury Free Workplace means
we all go home the same way we arrived !!
•
People are injured because we all have
RISK TOLERANCE (It won’t happen to ME!)
•
•
People are injured when they COMPLY with safety
expectations rather than BELIEVE in safety 24/7.
The 24/7 Safety Conversation provides crewmembers
individual feedback on:
•
•
What they do that helps keep us safe
What might put us at unnecessary risk
24/7 Safety Conversation
24/7 SAFETY Conversations are effective because they
help us know what to say
and how to say it
when we have a safety concern.

24/7 Safety Conversation
Ultimately everyone is responsible for their own behaviors, “Have I provided safety feedback in a manner that but we still need to ask ourselves, motivates them to change their behavior?”
If not, then I am accountable
if an incident takes place.
What Is The Extra Degree ?
The one degree of difference in 24/7 Safety is our:  Willingness to speak up  Have a conversation that changes behaviors  Give responsibility to everyone for CREATING AN INCIDENT FREE SAFETY CULTURE.
