High-Reliability Safety Program Development

“High-Reliability Safety Culture Development” discusses the differences between a true High-Reliability Organization that requires workplace safety as a prerequisite to success in any operation, let alone a device to avoid catastrophic failure, and a culture of baseline, minimal compliance. It discusses High-Reliability concepts, starting with Enterprise Risk Management, illustrates how reliability and validity of data are required through program participation and managerial oversight before any progress can be considered real, and systemically and scientifically delineates a workplace safety program into integrated components that are executable in an organization of any size. Ultimately, true to High-Reliability concepts, these components allow for the positive reinforcement of safe behaviors, maintenance of safe conditions, and the interaction between the two to account for a whole culture change.

Speaker: Cory Worden, Manager, System Safety, Memorial Hermann Healthcare System

Using Custom Mobile Apps to Report Near Misses and Unsafe Conditions

Reporting and resolving near misses and unsafe conditions is a recognized method to avoid injuries. Front-line employees are typically the ones who first recognize – and are best equipped to report – these types of incidents. In the past, employees at NextEra Energy had to leave the floor and go to a company computer to report an issue. Not only did this take them off the job, many employees felt that the process risked their anonymity and made them look like “complainers”.

All of that changed with the introduction of a mobile app reporting system! Learn all about the process NextEra used to create this innovative mobile app and how it has impacted safety performance!

Speakers: Kevin O’Donnell, Principal Safety Professional, NextEra Energy and Annamalai Lakshmanan, IM-PGD Technical Services Leader, IT Business Solutions PGD IM, NextEra Energy Inc.
