| Safety Observations/Interventions |
Performing safety observations in the correct manner is a very important element of a successful safety
program. This gives supervisors the opportunity to observe employees while they are working and visit with
them about the activities that are being performed. The supervisor should watch for any unsafe actions that
may be occurring while also taking take note of the safe work that is being performed. In a positive and caring
manner, the supervisor should intervene to correct any at-risk behaviors and reinforce the safe behaviors.
Performing these observations frequently will have a positive impact on your company’s safety performance.
This observation process assists the supervisor towards building a good safety relationship with employees
and also paves the way for him to evaluate the effectiveness of other safety processes that are being used by
the company. Safety Performance Management can develop and implement a customized safety observation
process that fits your company’s needs.
