The Invisible SIF: What HOP Gets Wrong
In response to Three Mile Island, HOP or (Human and Organizational Performance) began in the nuclear industry in the early 80’s and it is now spreading like wildfire through the safety community.
HOP, like Behavior Based Safety once was, is now the “wunderkind” of the safety world. There are many solid concepts to the HOP approach, which is often billed as the “replacement” to BBS. Still, many Safety Pros report that they struggle getting from the theory to the front lines where the work is done.
How do you “do” HOP exactly? How do you sustain it? Has it eroded accountability in safety? Is Heinrich’s pyramid really bogus as HOP suggests? And, perhaps the most important question is this one: What is the Invisible SIF (S.erious I.njury F.atality), and why does HOP fail to see it? Learn the answers to the above questions and more in this all new keynote session by Top Ten Speaker/Author Bill Sims, and receive Bill’s whitepaper ahead of his upcoming book on the topic.
