Behavior Based Safety (BBS)

Behavior Based Safety (BBS) is a tool used by companies to help them decrease the number of safety incidents in the workplace. It is a proactive approach that focuses on changing behavior, rather than waiting for an incident to occur before acting.

BBS seeks to prevent injuries through the use of systems and processes that promote safe work practices and behaviors. This involves identifying and addressing unsafe behavior, as well as creating a culture of safety where employees feel comfortable reporting unsafe conditions or practices.

The goal of Behavior Based Safety is to reduce injuries and illnesses related to work activities by preventing unsafe acts or conditions before they cause an injury or illness. It also helps with managing risk effectively so that accidents can be prevented in advance so there will be no need for post-incident responses or litigation after an injury has occurred at work.

Behavior Based Safety (BBS) also helps people recognize unsafe behaviors, so they can address them before they cause an accident or injury. This approach is different from traditional safety training, which focuses on teaching employees about different types of hazards, how to recognize them, and how to respond when they occur.
