transformational teams created COVID
Watchers, who were responsible for pro-
moting and enforcing safe habits and
behaviors aligned with COVID-19 safety
protocols. We extended the reach of our
behavior-based safety approach to cover
COVID-19 pandemic recommendations.
We also broadened our cultural approach
