About this title

Synopsis

Traditional safety management falls into one of three categories: compliance-based safety, behavior-based safety, and engineering-based safety. Each of these methods has value and elements of each are necessary for a successful process. However, each of these methods also has flaws. (See the Comparison Charts on pages 11 and 12) Of these flaws, the most critical is that each allows front-line supervisors to abdicate their responsibility to another entity or process. The BRANTA Method™ described in this book is a logic-based approach that promotes supervisor accountability for creating an environment of success…and gives them the tools to do so.

The BRANTA Method focuses on the development of leadership skills in front-line supervisors so that they can work to actively defend their company profits and protect employees.
