As the editorial process continues, information about the book, new videos and presentations will be posted here and over in Safety Culture Plus.   We’ve had many discussions about organizational culture, the subset of safety culture, human performance improvement and many more concepts that might improve the work environment.

As the Job Hazard Analysis is critical to the development of a strong organizational culture that embraces safety, we  will continue to cover concepts learned while researching the concepts of culture and how the culture impacts how jobs get done.
