Zero Limits: Instill A Safety Attitude To Build A Successful Culture Of Safety
Truthfully, if compliance alone worked, you'd be at Zero all of the time. But you're not. You are limited by underlying attitudes leaving you just one mistake away from an incident. Published studies demonstrate that as many as 95% of all workplace incidents are triggered by unsafe behaviours which originate from an individual worker's choice to act unsafely. Those choices are the result of underlying attitudes around safety. Change the attitude and you change the choices made.
