Download Lean Behavior-Based Safety: BBS for Today's Realities AudioBook Free
While several version of behavior-based safeness (BBS) have been with us since the 1980s, few of them have truly designed to the changing environment in which they must operate. The Slim BBS process hasn't only improved, but continues to take action with each personalized implementation. Making BBS fit your culture, procedures, and logistical realities, rather than wanting to make your company fit some idealistic model, is a key to success in the current realities. In 2001, ProAct Safe practices introduced Low fat BBS as a major upgrade to traditional behavior-based safeness models with a concentrate on providing new value with more efficient, safer work. Simply put, Lean BBS focuses on adding value to employees rather than trying to control them. Slim BBS addresses the four major issues found within the common behavior-based safeness process:
- BBS provides successful results for many organizations, however they are searching for a way to take the process to the next level. The Low fat BBS methodology can take them there.
- Some are adamantly against BBS for several reasons (union level of resistance, questionable implementations, cookie-cutter and inflexible techniques, etc.). Slim BBS gains bargaining product support, which is fit-for-purpose and personalized to the realities of each organization.
- Organizations with vastly different functions from site to site want to bring uniformity over the company. Simply changing from one methodology to some other is not interesting nor rational. Employing a more efficient Low fat BBS model was both interesting and a logical solution to encourage the functions to advance towards value-add.
- Some be reluctant to pursue BBS anticipated to high costs and demand on interior resources to use the process. Slim BBS has an option that addresses these concerns because of the hyper concentrate on efficiency and making sure value-add.
