This course aims to create a compelling argument for everyone to work safely and look out for their colleagues. The behavioural safety awareness course is highly interactive and encourages delegates to discuss and reflect on the impact of their and their colleagues’ behaviours. We can only effectively contribute to the goal of safe and healthy work for everyone by understanding, making decisions and acting according to one’s roles, responsibilities, and priorities. The achievement of this goal is improved by developing everyone’s ability, commitment, and empowerment to conduct observations, report unsafe (and safe) behaviours and conditions, and make appropriate and respectful interventions where necessary.
Who needs this Qualification?
This course is suitable for any person working in the construction industry.
Why is this training important?
Construction work takes various forms. However, most would agree that many activities carried out during construction work have the potential to result in serious injury and fatalities. Behavioural safety awareness training enables employees to recognise safe/unsafe acts and conditions and appropriately intervene and respond to these issues if they arise. Reinforcing positive behaviours and appropriately responding to human failure (errors and violations) support an organisation’s risk management process. Behavioural safety awareness training provides delegates with the knowledge, skills, and tools to recognise and report/respond to unsafe behaviours and human factors that influence the likelihood of errors and violations.
Course content
• Introduction to individual/team behaviour and consequences
• Introduction to Human Factors and how they influence behaviour (introduction to Ouch Human Factor evaluation tool ‘Possible and Preferable’)

• Introduction to communication styles
