Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) Training
Course Overview
The Behaviour-Based Safety (BBS) Training programme focuses on the human factors of workplace safety—addressing unsafe behaviours that often lead to incidents, even when systems and equipment are in place.
This internationally recognised approach encourages employees at all levels to take personal responsibility for safety by using observation, feedback, and positive reinforcement techniques.
