13. Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 13 Where to Address Injury Reduction

14. Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 14 Conclusions n Safety performance is moving toward excellence n Staff are satisfied with safety performance n Safety organization excellent n Worker involvement excellent n Competent group of safety specialists approaches excellence n Comprehensive safety systems approaches excellence n Concerns associated with equipment and facilities n Supervisors do not buy into ‘all injuries can be prevented’ n Clearer rules and practices needed

15. Brookhaven Science Associates U.S. Department of Energy 15 Recommendations n Derek should continue to set zero injuries as the Department’s direction n C-AD managers and supervisors must set this same demanding goal n Supervisors must re-examine their belief about preventing all injuries n Safety rules must be well communicated and confined to a small set n Safety rules should be distinguished from good practices n Regular post-job feedback sessions need to be implemented Involve managers, supervisors and workers
