The HSE culture is a share value concept among all organization levels so if one needs to raise it he/ she should consider all stakeholders
I believe a constant reminder of the safety information required on a daily task mentioning the risk of the job to be done can benefits in increasing the HSE safety culture among the staff, this only shows the management commitment to the safety of the staff and ensure a safe place to work and staff will understand a poor safety culture could lead to many accidents and injuries.
Management commitment & Participation in Safety meetings & Tours.
By mutual efforts of the Organization and the Employees HSE culture can be inculcated in a company.
First, it is for Organization to invest into infrastructure to practice HSE, communicate benefits of HSE to employees, organize programs to promote HSE and reward HSE behavior.
On the other hand, Employees should participate and act to promote HSE initiatives. Employees and Society at large, will benefit from HSE. The staff should increase productivity to make HSE an affordable long lasting practice for the company, and within few years HSE will be Organization's culture.
Dear Mohammad,
HSE culture depicts how people do things in terms of HSE. I think a positive HSE culture is achieved through leadership commitment. Leaders must walk the talk. Leaders must be visibly seen to coach and mentor employees on good safety behaviours. Preaching the HSE with no action sends a signal of inaction and employees are bound to follow suit. You need to involve and consult employees in matters of HSE. In this case they will feel part of the organisation's effort to make HSE work. I think the issue of making HSE the sole responsibility of the HSE professional is the old style of managing HSE. HSE is management's responsibility. HSE Specialist or professional's role is to advise line management. Every line management should be made to have key HSE performance indicators as part of his duties. Job descriptions of line management as far as top managers should vividly spell out their HSE responsibilities. HSE is not the preserve of HSE professionals and it must be seen as such. I think with this, a postive HSE culture will be raised in a set up.
Dear Mohammad,
it's a matter of time. You have to start at the senior levels and cascade down to the lowest level in the company. From my experience you need to have a dedicated one person as HSE officer or ... for every50 employees. You have to conduct TBT, awareness sessions,2 minutes safety talk every morning before starting job, continual follow up and the most important thing in my opinion is to raise every accident/incident and even the near misses and investigate them deeply and implement the corrective actions,
Many Thanks,
