Safety & Performance

A Novel Approach to Achieve Safety and Performance Proactively in Any Organisation

 

This book is not about performance. It is also not about safety. It is about both performance and safety, and how these two are unavoidably linked, in all circumstances whether they like it or not. It is the combination of tireless attention for and performance and safety that delivers sustainable profits in any organisational context. To this end, the authors elaborate and describe an approach that can be used exactly for dealing with performance and safety in one go, and asking the right questions at the right time to the right people. The idea is to align the different teams and levels within the organisation through shaping the right mental models, dialogue, and respect. Leadership and management practices are indispensable in this regard, and the book therefore explains their roles and tasks as well. Applying the concepts, approaches, models, practices and recommendations given and expounded in the book leads to excellent sustainable results as well as the long-term viability of any organisation. This book includes chapters on mental models, measuring unsafe situations/activities, risk management, dialogue skills, leadership models, change management, and organisational alignment. The approach that is explained herein is called Total Respect Management and can be considered as a user-friendly way to achieve safety (Safety-I) and performance (Safety-II) proactively in any organisational context.

An ontological and semantic foundation for safety science  By  P.J. Blokland, G.L.L. Reniers
 

This article proposes an ontological and semantic foundation for safety science, based on an etymological and etiological study of the concepts of risk and safety. 

The Coupling of Safety and Security

Exploring Interrelations in Theory and Practic

 

This open access book explores the synergies and tensions between safety and security management from a variety of perspectives and by combining input from numerous disciplines. It defines the concepts of safety and security, and discusses the methodological, organizational and institutional implications that accompany approaching them as separate entities and combining them, respectively.

An Ontological and Semantic Foundation for Safety and Security Science

When discussing the concepts of risk, safety, and security, people have an intuitive understanding of what these concepts mean, and, to a certain level, this understanding is universal. However, when delving into the real meaning of these concepts, one is likely to fall into semantic debates and ontological discussions. In industrial parks, it is important that (risk) managers from different companies, belonging to one and the same park, have the same understanding of the concepts of risk, safety, and security.

Safety Science, a Systems Thinking Perspective: From Events to Mental Models and Sustainable Safety

In the past one hundred years, concepts such as risk, safety and security have become ever more important and they represent a growing concern in our society. These concepts are also important subjects of study to enhance sustainability. During the past fifty years, safety science has gradually developed as an independent field of science. In this period, different concepts, theories, models and research traditions have emerged, each with its specific perspective. Safety science is now focused on finding ways to proactively achieve safety versus reaching safety in a reactive way.

Achieving Organisational Alignment, Safety and Sustainable Performance in Organisations

When viewing socio-technical systems through a systems thinking lens, it becomes clear that mental models drive behaviour and shape outcomes. This applies to individuals—systems in themselves—as well as the broader teams, organisations, or societies they’re part of. Individual behaviour stems from personal perceptions and mental models, which can generate both value and unintended consequences. As such, achieving safety and sustainable performance requires a deep understanding and deliberate management of these mental models within organisations.

Measuring (Un)Safety. A Broad Understanding and Definition of Safety, Allowing for Instant Measuring of Unsafety.

Industrial safety performance has, for a long time, been the domain of health and safety specialists, measuring injury and absenteeism rates to discover patterns and trying to prevent accidents from happening. The drawback of this approach is that safety is reactive to accidents, mostly caused by operations.

A Systems-Thinking View on Climate Change

Many perceptions exist regarding climate change. These perceptions determine the action that is given to this global challenge. To come to the right decisions and action, it is important that the quality of those perceptions is as high as possible, because wrong or inadequate decisions and action could have grave consequences for the people on planet Earth. A systems-thinking perspective can help in gaining the required quality of perception to effectively and efficiently address this global challenge.

Total Respect Management (TR³M): A Systemic Management Approach in Aligning Organisations towards Performance, Safety and CSR

Total Respect Management (TR³M) is a systemic approach and an integrated management system to proactively reach performance, safety and CSR in organisations and teams. Being a systemic approach entails it takes the whole system into account and acts on those elements in the system that generate fundamental and sustainable change in order to achieve specific goals. When safety and corporate social responsibility are important to an organisation, associated values and their supporting beliefs need to be embedded and become deeply rooted into the organisational culture.

Total Respect Management: An Innovative Engineering Management Practice to Deal with the Complexities and Society's Expectations of Today's Industrial Activities

Do the right things right for the right reasons. This is how one could summarise Total Respect Management. It is combining leadership (doing things for the right reasons), management (doing the right things) and excellence (doing things right). In order to achieve this, it is paramount to posses the right attitude and a high quality of perception. Perception determines what is perceived and how this is dealt with. ISO 31000, the organisational alignment model and the KARAF® model, support individuals and organisations in achieving a proper attitude and higher quality of perception, leading to better and sustainable results.

Process safety indicators, a review of literature

Safety indicators can offer insight into the safety level of a process or company, but no 'silver bullet' has been found. Secondary literature distinguishes between leading and lagging indicators, while primary sources question both this split and the quantification of safety. Management and organizational indicators have an ambiguous link to latent conditions, often cited in accident analyses. Occupational safety indicators don't always reflect process safety. Regulators are likely to demand both types of indicators, integrated into safety management systems. As such, safety indicators will remain a key focus for the foreseeable future.
