Finally, in one easily read book, the tools for developing an effective organizational safety culture are explained and detailed with real world experience. This book is the guide you have been waiting for if you are starting the search for answers on influencing your company's safety culture, or if you need to evaluate your personal approach toward safety. Dr. Williams has successfully compiled the pertinent research �dealing with both the people and the programmatic sides of the equation �and delivers an excellent resource to anyone looking to positively impact their safety culture., In Keeping People Safe, Dr. Josh Williams provides us with insights from his experience of 15 years working to improve employee safety. He asks what leaders can do to impact employee motivation, attitudes, and, most importantly, the behaviors that put them at risk by extending the discussion of People-Based Safety (PBS) emphasized by E. Scott Geller. Dr. Williams translates the extensive research behind PBS into straightforward examples of principles shown to impact organizational safety culture (and mixes in humor while he's at it). The level of detail and tested advice in this book will make it THE desktop companion for any safety professional., Finally, in one easily read book, the tools for developing an effective organizational safety culture are explained and detailed with real world experience.

Dr. Williams has successfully compiled the pertinent research--dealing with both the people and the programmatic sides of the equation--and delivers an excellent resource to anyone looking to positively impact their safety culture., Many safety articles and books rely on "common sense" rather than empirical research. Dr. Williams fuses his personal experiences in implementing behavior-based safety and people-based safety with scientifically validated concepts. In Keeping People Safe, Dr. Williams addresses the importance of organization safety culture as well as the leadership, communication, and people-based factors and skills necessary to improve your organization's safety culture. The concepts in this book are supported with real-world examples and will be useful for safety professionals, managers, supervisors, safety committee members, employees and union workers., Many safety articles and books rely on "common sense" rather than empirical research.

The level of detail and tested advice in this book will make it THE desktop companion for any safety professional., A must read for anyone interested in positively impacting their organization's safety culture. After watching Josh in action implementing a BBS program I was very interested to read his latest book; it lived up to expectations and then some. His research is thorough and he builds a vision that takes safety from an administrative burden to a business-strengthening cultural driver. It will be a reference for me going forward., Excellent book, this will help organizations to educate employees, get engagement at all levels, and help companies to evolve to improve processes, skills, and competencies. Outstanding blend of theory, principles, basics, and the practical; particularly like the research facts, recommendations, and ideas for improving the current organizational thinking and practices. The total safety culture must include every employee and this book deals with executive through craft behaviors.
