The importance of measuring safety culture

Claims of a great safety culture are often made, but seldom proved.   For such a critical measure of proactive safety management, it is important to quantify it and ensure organisations are regularly monitoring their Safety Culture.  

 It is the culture of an organisation that influences individuals beliefs, values and attitudes towards safety or, the behaviour that is demonstrated everyday.

Safety Culture Index provides granular insights into an organisations culture and highlights what is working and what is not, directly from your workers.  The results are then used to help shape an organisations safety strategy, resulting in improved resource allocation, measurable inputs and ultimately less injuries.

If you're not measuring it, how can you improve it?

What is the safety culture index?

The SCI is a comprehensive multi-category survey tool used by over 64,000 users and approximately 4 million data points, making it the worlds largest safety culture and leadership database.  

With 56 questions covering 9 dimensions and 14 culture key drivers, It is designed to be a tool that provides a granular level of detail of an organisations safety culture that can be as broad or as a deep as required and provide targeted insights to influence an organisations strategic planning.

Employers are provided with a simple to navigate dashboard that can be incorporated with management and board reports along with a comprehensive report.
