Key Principles Behind Behaviour-based Safety
Behavior-Based Safety refers to the use of applied behaviour analysis models to achieve continuous improvement in safety performance, in-depth research about what works and what doesn't. According to Krause, safety programs fail because they rely too much on antecedents --things that come before behavior -- safety rules, procedures, meetings, and so on.
