The D Morgan Way
The Behaviour Gap
…“We recognise People are at the heart of safety and health”…
The Behaviour Gap is the Zone where unacceptable attitudes and poor behaviour allows too
many Accidents to occur… we want this to change
… ‘‘Play your part… we can’t do it without you’’…
The SHEQ Management System & our Safe System of Work (SSoW) are only as good as the
people involved and people are different, people have different attitudes and people behave
differently at work
The challenge is to work together – The D Morgan Way – to eliminate Accidents
This is YOUR chance to change things to be better than you are. If we change unacceptable
attitudes, we can improve poor behaviour, putting safety first, looking after your health &
wellbeing together reducing accidents in the workplace … ‘‘it’s better to be safe than sorry’’…
… ‘‘taking even the smallest risk just isn’t worth it’’…
Safety Inspections & Audits provide evidence we are all working together to;
reduce the Behaviour Gap in delivering Zero Harm to eliminate Accidents, so Everyone Goes Home Safely
!
Your Attitude….. is your attitude unacceptable?
can it improve?
THINK
For example Alcohol, Drugs, Substance abuse (or use) will affect your ability to work safely.
Your attitude will be unacceptable, putting lives at risk
YOUR lifestyle will shape your attitude; a complacent & indifferent attitude with no regard for the
Health & Safety at Work Act will affect your behaviour at work. You will be in conflict with the Act
Your attitude will be unacceptable, putting lives at risk
If we can improve unacceptable attitudes we can improve poor behaviour at work helping to
eliminate Accidents to achieve Zero Harm. That’s our aim, eliminating Accidents, by putting
safety first, looking after your health & wellbeing….. it should be your aim too THINK
Your Behaviour at work.. you have a Legal Duty of Care under the Health & Safety at Work Act
YOUR BEHAVIOUR AT WORK WILL AFFECT YOUR ABILITY TO WORK SAFELY
This Booklet identifies some of the ways we help people be the very best they can be,
working together as a TEAM confidently sharing information, pooling knowledge & experience
YOU NEED TO...‘‘Play your part’’... eliminating Accidents to achieve Zero Harm
Performing safely, protecting health & wellbeing, underpins your role in the business
YOU HAVE a Legal Duty of Care at work for the safety & health of yourself and other people
including to co-operate with your employer, complying with legal requirements
… ‘‘unacceptable attitudes & poor behaviour
are the cause of too many Accidents at work. Change your attitude.’’…
