About the Creating Positive Safety Culture: Behavioral Based Safety Course

Time Training Center's 5-day/30-hour "Creating Positive Safety Culture: Behavioral Based Safety" course equips participants with strategies to build a workplace where safety is a shared, daily responsibility. ​This program moves beyond traditional compliance-focused approaches, centring on proactively addressing the root causes of unsafe behaviours by understanding the psychological and social factors that drive them.​

The course delves into how safety behaviours are shaped, how to identify and assess critical safety behaviours, and the practical application of behavior modification techniques to reinforce positive actions. You can learn to conduct safety observations, analyse behaviour data, and give feedback to promote safer behaviors, reducing risks and incidents.

Through real-world case studies and hands-on training, attendees will learn to integrate Behaviour-Based Safety with other safety systems like hazard identification and risk assessments. By the end of the course, you will have the tools to implement and sustain a Behavioral-Based Safety (BBS) program effectively. You’ll drive continuous safety improvements and foster an environment where employees are motivated and empowered to prioritise safety.
