Ownership

 

When we talk about safety accountability, the association is often negative. People tend to think “accountability” means discipline – someone is getting in trouble. Caterpillar Safety Services suggests thinking about accountability in a positive, proactive way.

Create ownership of safety for every employee at all levels of your organization. That ensures everyone is accountable and empowered to create solutions and continuously improve.

Creating a collective mindset is how ownership of safety goes beyond the safety department to every level of the organization.
