10:30 - 11:10

This paper enumerates the importance and effectiveness of Behavior Based Safety (BBS). Failure of BBS is unthinkable particularly with the proven results of improving injury reduction by an order of magnitude. A comparison of BBS systems is drawn with the Total Quality Management (TQM)/Six Sigma style approach as it promotes a participative, promotive, and positive work culture in an organization.
