FACTORIES
ACT & BEHAVIORAL BASED SAFETY
18th February 2012
Hotel Fidalgo, Panaji Goa
Organized by
Green
Triangle Society
In association with
Inspectorate
of Factories & Boilers
INTRODUCTION
The Factories Act, 1948 is a social legislation and it
provides for the health, safety, welfare, working hours, leave and other
benefits for workers employed in factories. It seeks to provide protection to
the worker from being exploited by establishments and it also provides for the
improvement of working conditions within factory premises. It is enacted
primarily with the object of protecting workers employed in factories against
industrial and occupational hazards.
The workplace accidents are primarily due to unsafe
human behavior which if corrected can bring down 90% of the injuries. The
safety of the workplace is influenced by a number of factors such as the organizational
environment, management attitude and commitment, the nature of the job or task,
and the personal attributes of the individual. Safety related behaviour at the workplace can be modified by addressing
these major influences. The successful introduction of a behavioral safety
process, focusing on identifying and reinforcing safe and reducing unsafe behaviour, is one means of improving safety performance.
Promoting safe behavior at work is a critical part of
the management of health and safety, because behavior turns systems and
procedures into reality. On their own, good systems do not ensure successful
health and safety management, as the level of success is determined by how
organizations ‘live’ their systems
Behavioral programmes have become popular in the
safety domain, as there is evidence that a proportion of accidents are caused
by unsafe behavior. Whilst a focus on changing unsafe behavior into safe
behavior is appropriate, this should not deflect attention from also analyzing
why people behave unsafely. To focus solely on changing individual behavior without considering necessary changes
to how people are organised, managed, motivated, rewarded and their physical
work environment, tools and equipment can result in treating the symptom only,
without addressing the root causes of unsafe behavior.
