#Motivation
Motivational programs and employee engagement in safety issues. From financial rewards to gamification and non-material recognition of merits. The section reveals the experience of transitioning from a system of 'fines for violations' to strategies of rewarding identified risks, audit participation, and rationalization proposals.
Fire, Water, and Brass Pipes of Safety Culture
Implementation of an open incident and error reporting system, abandoning punitive measures. The practice includes shaping desired behavior, motivating by management's personal example, creating accessible communication channels (e.g., QR codes), and high-quality incident investigation to find root causes.
Severstal Safety Volunteers
Creating and developing a safety volunteer movement among workers at a large industrial enterprise. The program is based on voluntary participation, no quantitative KPIs, and non-financial motivation, including on-demand soft skills training and participation in leadership walkarounds.
Development of a Safety Culture at Tugnuisky Open Pit JSC
A comprehensive approach to developing a safety culture at a mining enterprise, based on critical risk analysis and multi-level barriers. The practice includes digitalizing feedback via QR codes, using technical protection means (directional light systems, driver monitoring, voltage indicators), and engaging personnel through training and motivation.
Strategy and Tactics
Integrating HSE and environmental goals into the overall business strategy of a food industry company with regular reporting to the management board. Implementing a management system based on ISO 45001 and ISO 14001 standards, using Yandex Forms to collect near-misses and safety tags, and linking employee career growth to HSE knowledge.
Tools for Motivating Employees Towards Safe Work
Implementation of a comprehensive personnel motivation system for safe work, including the "Best Employee" and "Best Department" nominations, the "Safety Idea" rationalization proposal program, and the "Insight: Public Control" mobile app for recording risks. Using incognito mode at the start to overcome resistance, followed by a transition to material and non-material rewards for active participants.
Digitalization of Occupational Safety Processes
Creation of an HSE digital service ecosystem by an in-house programmer. Modules for behavioral audits, hazard registration, order relevance control, and electronic permits-to-work were implemented with integration into the corporate portal and accounting system.
How to Train Employees to Conduct High-Quality Behavior-Based Safety Audits?
Integration of Behavior-Based Safety (BBS) training into professional skills competitions and mini-trainings. Practical training of BBS skills using simulated situations, prepared "violators", photo cases, and checklists with a "persuasiveness" criterion.
Production System Elements as a Tool for Efficient and Safe Work
Integrating safety requirements into the company's production system elements. Implementing standardized operation cards, 5S, the "I Have an Idea" continuous improvement program, and team ratings based on HSE performance.
Digital Safety Services: Ecology and Fleet Under Control
Implementation of a telematics and AI video analytics system for fleet control and predictive accident prevention. The system includes sound alerts for drivers during violations, driving style scoring, and automated feedback via Telegram bots for line managers.
5 Steps to High-Risk Work Safety
A comprehensive high-risk work management system including work categorization, strict planning, work permit automation using digital signatures, and video recording to identify hidden risks. System implementation increased planned work to 95% and completely eliminated injuries.
Critical Risk Management Through a Barrier Approach
Transitioning from formal hazard lists to a dynamic critical risk management system via a barrier approach. Practices include integrating risk assessment into the budget campaign, distributing barrier control responsibilities among management levels during walkarounds, and building a motivation system based on risk identification.
Developing a Safety Culture with Limited Resources
Implementation of basic safety culture tools under limited resources at geographically distributed oil and gas production facilities. Practices include visualizing rules, installing mirrors for PPE checks, marking hard hats of first-aid ready employees, and launching a hotline and Hazard Observation Card (HOC) system with financial motivation for proactivity.
