Behavior Based Safety for Leaders: Introduction
Behavior Based Safety refers to the concept of having everyone on your team take an active approach to
their own safety, so that the job goes well, the client stays happy and no one gets hurt.
The goal of this presentation is to educate leaders about Behavior Based Safety and encourage them to
add the program components into their existing safety management system.

Participant Materials
Training Exercise 1: Task Observation (25 minutes)
Part ONE: (10 minutes)
Take a few moments and do some brain storming about the kind of tasks that you feel it would be important to have task observations completed for. It is important that we as leaders don’t create an additional work load that is not realistic for the available resources. Be sure to select tasks where it is critical that they are done correctly, and tasks that regularly create quality or safety problems if done incorrectly. As well, brain storm reasons why some tasks do not require task observations to be completed. Some organizations set requirements regarding which task observations need to be completed prior to anyone performing work. Should there be a refresher task observation or is a one-time task observation effective enough?
Part Two: (15 minutes)
Watch the Forklift video in the presentation and complete a task observation for one of the workers.
Fill in the form and indicate any issues that you think the worker may have when completing this job. If
your company has an equivalent form, please use that one. Facilitators, please give the attendees a
brief explanation of the form before you start the exercise.
