Safety seems like an easy problem to solve – if only we could get people to follow safety rules. Alas, that’s not what happens. But what if part of the problem isn’t with the workers, but with us? What if we’re misunderstanding the problem? Through reviewing relevant research and real-world case studies, we’ll review the problem of safety violations from a unique perspective. You’ll walk away with a fresh understanding of why people follow and violate safety rules, ways to design rules that improve safety performance, and how to develop a rule management system.
