ON THE JOB ACTIONS
Safety Knowledge
Make sure that you have enquired about and are aware of any safety regulations or practices that are necessary for your work. NEVER compromise on safety.

Balanced Decisions
Use a Decision Grid described in Problem Solving and Decision Making to list out the parameters involved in a complex decision about safety or risk, weight them, and compare options. This helps you to be rational and to explain your decisions to others and/or involve them in the decision.

Knowledge Management
Set up mechanisms to educate relevant colleagues in their safety knowledge and awareness.
