Behavior-Based Safety (BBS) has been around for decades, credited with reducing incidents and shifting focus onto frontline actions. In today's evolving workplaces, some question whether BBS still fits--or if it unintentionally reinforces blame culture. In this episode of Safety on Purpose, we unpack where BBS came from, why it's under fire, and what needs to evolve for it to remain effective. We'll explore how modern safety culture demands more than observation checklists--and how integrating trust, context, and human factors can transform BBS. into a tool for engagement rather. than compliance.

If you've ever wondered whether BBS is outdated or how to adapt it for today's workforce -- this. conversation is for you.

Too often, leaders focus on proving their point or being "right", but real influence comes from making people feel heard. We'll explore why listening builds trust, how it strengthens culture, and practical ways you can shift from correcting to connecting.

This bite-sized episode is packed with wisdom for safety professionals and leaders who want to create impact beyond compliance.
