Rating: - A Wonderful and Enduring Book
Beginning in 1986, I started my career in safety and health management.

In 1995, Values-Based Safety Process emerged as a go-to reference for me. It is a wonderful and enduring book!

Rating: - The Values-Based Safety Process: Improving Your Safety Cultu
I reviewed this book along with four others by other BBS consultant authors and I find this to be the best. Terry McSween has written a very usable book complete with forms, checklists. and essential elements necessary for doing your own process, if you are intending to anyway. I also found the section on safety incentives to be very helpful and neccessary. One is likely to do a poor BBS implementation unless they address the important organizational interface between the popular but controversial safety rewards ... Read More
