Behavioural Observation is a process to verify that work is performed efficiently and in compliance with agreed-upon HSE requirements. The Behavioural Observation process shall be used in all occupations and associated tasks to include subcontractors.

 

Behavioural observation is a critical step in the drive toward ZERO ACCIDENT and ZERO TOLERANCE. It guides the project through the steps of each task and assists in the recognition of those actions that may cause an incident. Behaviour Observation is a proactive approach that permits us to take actions before an event and thus avoid loss. It increases employees HSE awareness by involving suitably trained workers to conduct the observation.

 

Observations must be carried out on critical jobs/ tasks in each area as the highest priority. Changes in procedures or equipment are to be given the next priority, followed by general procedures, instructions, and safe work practices.

 

Behavioural observation shall be conducted weekly on groups of workers doing different tasks.
