Training programs that focus on OH&S mindset or behaviours can be very effective. There are various programs of this nature around. The OH&S culture of an organization would need to be taken in consideration in deciding what program to use or design. I designed a program that used the concepts of Canadian professor Gerald JS Wilde. His book "Target Risk" formed the basis of this program.
"Target Risk" is the level of risk a person chooses to accept in order to maximize the overall expected benefit from an activity". (From Target Risk by Gerald JS Wilde)
So, in order to reduce incidents, you could focus on reducing a person's Target Risk level. Target Risk levels may vary from person to person so I felt that any such training program had to be made personal, both in content and in it's delivery method. The results were amazing.
