Keynote: Harnessing<br />
Stress Power<br />
Stress contributes to many types of safety<br />
problems, directly leading to accidents and<br />
indirectly affecting morale, communications,<br />
and planning. This presentation focuses<br />
on innovative personal and organizational<br />
strategies and methods for harnessing<br />
stress as a positive force for greater safety,<br />
health, and involvement — as well as<br />

SESSION 1<br />
9 a.m.-12:30 p.m.<br />
Breaking the Chain of<br />
Accident Repetition: Helping<br />
“Accident Repeaters”<br />
(9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.)<br />
A few “accident repeaters” seem to account<br />
for a large share of injuries. But accident<br />
repetition involves more than a few problem<br />
employees. Accident repetition has<br />
multiple causes – and there are many types<br />
of repeaters. It is possible to significantly<br />
reduce accident repetition by focusing on<br />
a skills-based approach that turns around<br />
patterns of repetition.<br />
This seminar provides a systematic approach<br />
that has been shown to prevent<br />
initial incidents from turning into repeat<br />
problems and break the chain of long-standing<br />
accident repetition.<br />
Objectives:<br />
• Better understand the hidden problems in<br />
accident repetition<br />
• Recognize five kinds of accident repeaters<br />
and three forces in accident causation<br />
• Learn a systematic approach to reducing<br />
multiple incidents<br />
• Explore innovative interventions that break<br />
the chain of accident repetition<br />
