Story
It is hard to change almost a lifetime of your organization’s thinking about safety in the traditional way and it is really difficult to change your organization’s history of bureaucracy that continues to reinforce the traditional safety definitions and metrics our organizations have used for many years. Let’s face it, change even for the better is hard to do. Doing Safety Differently is a discussion between two friends on what they have learned by watching organizations around the world change the way they do work.

Story
Many organizations tell us that work has never been as safe as it is today. They will show the lowest injury figures ever and the rosiest incident counts in years. They want to be proud of these accomplishments, and perhaps they should be. But behind these results hides complexity and contradiction - a messiness that Todd Conklin takes us into with this audiobook.

Story
Building on its successful predecessors, the third edition of The Field Guide to Understanding 'Human Error' will show a new way of dealing with a perceived "human error" problem in your organization. It will help you trace how your organization juggles inherent trade-offs between safety and other pressures and expectations, suggesting that you are not the custodian of an already safe system. It will encourage you to start looking more closely at the performance that others may still call "human error", allowing you to discover how your people create safety through practice, at all levels of your organization, mostly successfully, under the pressure of resource constraints and multiple conflicting goals.

Story
Work has never been as safe as it seems today. Safety has also never been as bureaucratized as it is today. Over the past two decades, the number of safety rules and statutes has exploded, and organizations themselves are creating ever more internal compliance requirements. Bureaucracy and compliance now seem less about managing the safety of workers, and more about managing the liability of the people they work for. At the same time, progress on safety has slowed. Many incident and injury rates have flatlined. Worse, excellent safety performance on low-consequence events tends to increase the risk of fatalities and disasters.

Publisher's Summary
Sometimes bad accidents happen. When a fatal accident happens, your organization will find itself at a terrible crossroads.
The choices your organization must make will set the course for the eventual recovery from this horrible event. The need to understand and explain how the awful event happened is paramount to bouncing forward to a better and more stable future. How you investigate this event is directly connected to whether your organization wants to blame and punish or learn and improve. How your organization will respond is a deliberate act.
This book is not a discussion on how to prevent fatalities or serious events in your organization. This book is a discussion on what to do when the worst accident happens – when prevention fails and people get killed. Having a horrible event is a difficult time for any organization – having a horrible event is an extremely difficult if the organization that has the event is yours.
When the Worst Accident Happens is not a book written about fatality response theory. This book is based upon real experience in responding to catastrophic accidents that have happened all over the world. This book's ideas are not simply good ideas for fatality response - these ideas are real practices based upon actual events by organizations that have suffered a fatal event. I hope you don’t read this book. I hope you never have to use the information contained on these pages. But if you do need this information, I hope this book helps your organization learn and improve. I hope your organization bounces forward – well beyond the place where the accident happened.
