How Engaging Employees can Embed Human Operational Performance Principles & Boost Safety Culture

Engaging employees through Human Operational Performance (H&OP) principles increases their involvement in meeting organizational goals and objectives from tracking and compliance mandates to improved safety in the workplace.  By utilizing EHS software with built-in H&OP principles, employees are more engaged and better able to make sense of errors or incidents in the workplace and find solutions to improve upon them going forward.  In doing so, EHS managers and leaders can gain clear insights into safety leading indicators to boost their safety culture all while engaging employees into the company fabric.  With options for logging accidents, near misses, and other hazards in addition to H&OP measures, employees are taking an active role in enhancing workforce safety.

For example, when an employee has the ability to log incidents in real-time from their mobile devices, they’re taking an active role in creating a safer work environment as H&OP principles embedded in the tools are learned by the employee. As employees become more active and engaged processes necessary to prevent safety hazards, the organizational safety culture grows as a result.
