Worksheets and a Rating Tool to Help You Strengthen Jobsite Safety Climate

This workbook, developed based on recommendations and input from stakeholders, is designed to help management and safety professionals learn about eight leading safety climate indicators and provides safety management strategies they can use to strengthen them.

Section 1 – Leading Indicator Worksheets: Each worksheet gives you the opportunity to assess your company’s safety climate maturity level and identify ideas for improving that particular indicator. To use the worksheets:

• Review the 5-level scoring scale to assess if your company’s safety climate level for that indicator is: Inattentive; Reactive; Compliant; Proactive; or Exemplary.
• Next, review the ideas you can use to improve that indicator. For each idea, select one of the following four options to realistically prioritize which you will commit to adopt and by when.
