The Behavior-Based Safety: Human Factors & Observation Techniques course is a comprehensive professional safety program designed for safety officers, supervisors, managers, occupational health professionals, construction personnel, operations leaders, project safety coordinators, and professionals responsible for improving workplace safety culture and behavioral performance. The course provides a structured understanding of Behavior-Based Safety (BBS), human factors, behavioral psychology, the ABC (Antecedent-Behavior-Consequence) model, human error, cognitive biases, situational awareness, risk perception, fatigue, stress, positive reinforcement, habits, and social learning, helping learners understand how individual behavior and organizational systems influence workplace safety performance.
Participants will develop practical knowledge of safety observation techniques, Critical Behavior Checklists (CBCs), behavioral sampling, observer consistency, leading indicators, safety data collection and analysis, feedback, coaching, employee engagement, and behavioral intervention strategies. The training explains how to identify and define critical safe and at-risk behaviors, conduct structured observations objectively, apply behavioral psychology principles, analyze trends, provide constructive feedback, and reinforce safe workplace practices. Learners also explore how leadership, work design, organizational culture, communication, production pressure, fatigue, cognitive limitations, and environmental conditions can influence behavior and contribute to incidents and near-misses.
The course further addresses BBS program design, observer training, steering committee governance, program rollout, resistance management, performance monitoring, continuous improvement, integration with ISO 45001, digital safety platforms, and long-term program sustainability. Through detailed case studies and implementation examples from the United Kingdom, Australia, United States, and Asia, learners gain practical insight into applying BBS principles across construction, industrial, manufacturing, and oil and gas environments. The program concludes with advanced strategies and a 15-question final assessment, helping participants strengthen their ability to build, manage, evaluate, and continuously improve proactive behavior-based safety programs.
