ACTIVELY CARING  FOR SAFETY
Video Series
This series of three videos (SPS152-SPS154) teaches employees fundamental principles of human behavior and gives them the tools to apply those principles toward improving their performance.  It stresses the importance of worker involvement and encourages workers to take charge of the process and make it succeed.  The course presents an employee-driven behavior-based approach to safety and health in the workplace.  It covers:  motivational techniques, team-building skills, effective intervention, coaching, gathering baseline data and analyzing critical behavior.

SPS152 
PART I MOTIVATING SAFE BEHAVIOR
Video
This module introduces the Actively Caring for Safety process.  Human motivation is explained from a behavioral science perspective.  Trainees learn why people are often more motivated to perform an at-risk behavior than a safe behavior.  They are shown the importance of worker involvement in reducing injuries, and learn what it means to actively care for safety.  The module concludes with several practical techniques people can use to help motivate safe performance in their workplace.  Includes a Participant’s Guide and Facilitator’s Kit.  20 minutes.

SPS153 
PART II IMPLEMENTING BEHAVIOR-  BASED SAFETY
Video
In this module, trainees learn to implement the DO IT process, an employee-driven behavior-based approach to safety improvement.  first they learn how a behavior-based approach works, and why it is an effective way to reduce the number of injuries occurring in the workplace.  Then they are guided step-by-step through the entire DO IT process, and learn to function as an effective implementation team.  Includes a Participant’s Guide and Facilitator’s Kit.  28 minutes.

SPS154 
PART III COACHING SAFE BEHAVIOR
Video
In this module, trainees learn how to conduct a systematic one-on-one coaching process based on observing a worker on the job and giving that worker feedback about safety-related behavior.  They are shown how to develop and use behavior observation checklists, then how to perform an observation and analyze performance.  Then considerable time is spent learning and practicing how to provide effective feedback, and how to praise and support safe behaviors and correct at-risk behaviors.  Includes a Participant’s Guide and Facilitator’s Kit.  23 minutes.

SPS157 
ANATOMY OF AN ACCIDENT
Video
This safety awareness program gets your employees thinking and actively involved in safety.  It encourages them to take the initiative for on-the-job accident prevention and share their safety ideas.  It presents two major goals for training participants to prevent accidents:

1. Awareness — Viewers will discover all the probable causes of an accident, 
   both hidden and obvious.
2. Employee Involvement — Trainees will be motivated to take action to 
   neutralize causes, thereby preventing accidents.

Your training participants will see how unsafe actions, combined with unsafe working conditions (both hidden and obvious) — add up to disaster for causing an accident.  Each piece of the accident “puzzle” fits together to show how many types of accidents, large or small, can be prevented.  The video shows a dramatic reenactment of a near fatal accident and how nearly everyone at the job site played a part in causing this accident.  Includes a comprehensive Leader’s Guide with lesson plans and participant materials to measure increased awareness and document training.  15 minutes.

SPS230 
PART I  S.T.A.R.T. A SAFETY CULTURE
Video
Culture, it is said, is like water to a fish—it is noticed only when it changes.  For the supervisor who has yet to accept safety as a primary responsibility, this program will clarify the economic relationship between safety and profitability which lays the foundation for holding their employees accountable.  This accountability structure will START them on their way to creating a safety culture.  Video One clearly depicts the difference between people who accept their safety accountability and those who don’t.  26 minutes.

SPS231 
PART II  S.T.A.R.T. TO RECOGNIZE AND   INVESTIGATE
Video
Non-safety cultures focus their efforts and attention on accidents and their causes.  Safety cultures, on the other hand, focus their attention on “incidents” and the “behaviors” associated with their causes.  To establish a safety culture, supervisors must understand the role of behavior in safety and how to recognize it, define it, understand it, and ultimately change it.  This video will help you begin this process.  14 minutes.

SPS232 
PART III  S.T.A.R.T. TO EDUCATE AND   MOTIVATE
Video
Safety behavior is composed of three basic elements:  knowledge, skill and attitude.  Skill cannot be taught; it must be acquired through experience.  However, the tools used to maximize the employee’s safety knowledge and optimize his or her safety attitude are education and motivation.  Video Three addresses the need for the supervisor to partner safety with fellow employees by holding them accountable for their own safety responsibilities through effective education and motivation.  15 minutes.

SPS233 
PART IV  S.T.A.R.T. RESULTS
Video
All the fundamental ideas of accountability are reviewed through case studies.  Characteristics of good supervision are demonstrated through examples of how four managers respond to safety issues.  This video, with accompanying printed material, completes the training.  20 minutes.
