Despite this and many other worrying workplace safety statistics, many organisations continue to concentrate on only one side of the safety equation, by tracking safety incidents and then trying to identify and fix the cause. Lag indicators (reactive measures) are the traditional way to monitor an organisation’s performance in the area of safety incidents. But does this approach show whether there is a constructive and robust safety culture on the shop floor, onsite or on the tarmac? And is a constructive and robust safety culture likely to result in the reduction of safety incidents?
While many senior leaders rely on lag indicators to support their safety strategies, high performance organisations are hard at work creating positive safety cultures and environments. These organisations understand the importance of complementing the necessary safety audits with a measurement and review of employee behaviour, attitudes, leadership style, engagement levels and continuous improvement initiatives. Measuring these lead indicators (predictive measures) of safety generate a more proactive and holistic approach to safety management and improving safety culture.

Introducing safety lead indicators means organisations can be proactive about safety, something everyone from employees to company directors should find reassuring.
