ABSTRACT

This chapter provides ideas to motivate and lead people, influence behaviour and drive a positive evolution in workplace safety. It discusses rituals that form part of your day and which of these has a positive impact on safety. Deciding what to focus on each day can be a tough task in its own right. The chapter shows how we ensure that we focus on those things that really take us closer to our goal of zero accidents and help us to build a culture that really values safety. When you decide that you've achieved your Daily Focus, go back to your list and choose the next action to become your focus. One of the author's personal favourite daily rituals is based on advice from his father. Tim's little ritual was to always begin with the word please and end with thank you.
