Workshop 2
Effective Leadership Qualities
Define the characteristics of an Ideal Leader?
Leadership Qualities 1. Own 2. Develop
Notes:
1. Qualities you now own/this is you
2. Qualities you want to work on/develop
An ES&H LEADERSHIP MODEL
Categories for Developing Leadership
Behaviours/Roles & Responsibilities:
- Planning (JHA, STARRT, - Resources (People,

Environmental) Tools, Equipment)
- Training, Coaching - Policy/Standards
- Behaviour Observation - Compliance
- Communications - Discipline
- Subcontractors - Visibility
- Recognition - Injury Analysis
- Positive Reinforcement - Stop work
- Feedback - Teamwork
- Assessments - Metrics
- Site Conditions - Leading Indicators
Key Points:
 As our responsibilities grow, we must continuously perform a self-
assessment of our leadership qualities and develop plans to make
improvements
 Our Leadership Model (Be, Know & Do) is a guide for you and future
leaders
 Roles & Responsibilities – Each employee needs to know their job duties
and ES&H Behaviors; this also serves as a tool for job evaluations

the potential resulting injuries.
Step 2: For each identified item above, define preventative measures and actions that
you will implement to prevent that event from occurring.

Key Points:
 Unless we determine and fix the most upstream causes of the

accidents, they will continue.
 Avoid taking the easy route. Don’t place blame on the first
cause that comes to mind. Instead, keep asking “why?” to get
to the most upstream causes of the problem.
 Injuries are a result of many contributing causes.

Environmental, Safety and Health

Leader’s Suggested Discussion Topics
Share what you learned with your team members – do this over several days so as not to
impact work schedule.
Some suggested notes for your Environmental, Safety, and Health discussion with the
craft team members:
1. Injuries are preventable:

a) Share the list of your ideas from the workshop (equipment/tool checks and maintenance, job
planning, education, reasonable schedule, looking out for each other, proper use of Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE).
b) Ask for their ideas and develop prevention plan – repeated daily or with work scope change.
2. Types of injuries that may occur on this project:

a) Review the workshop list (lacerations, smashing hands, strains, and foreign bodies in eyes).
b) List unsafe conditions that can cause an injury on the job. Develop a plan to correct the
problem.
3. Why injuries/illnesses occur:

a) Review workshop list (shortcuts/haste, using wrong tools, improper PPE).
b) Ask for their ideas.
4. Have your team members predict the next injury – make it a challenge to stop these from
happening.
5. 95% of injuries are attributed to employee at-risk behaviour. Employees need to be aware of their
individual behavior as well as that of others working with or close to them. Some at-risk behaviours
include:
a) Workshop list:
 Not focusing on work/horseplay/taking shortcuts/haste/inattention/improper lifting/not
following instructions or directions.
 Incorrect body position (in the line of fire)/improper use of tools/improper use of PPE.
b) Ask for team members’ ideas.
6. Expectations of workers:
b) Review workshop list (voice concerns, abide by rules, be fit for duty, ask questions, return
unsafe tools, do not cut corners).
c) Ask if they have any expectations of you.
Reminders:
1. Give employees a pat-on-the-back for working safe – positive reinforcement.
2. Plan all the work.
3. Communicate, communicate, and communicate.
4. Create a challenge – no injuries/illnesses/poor safety conditions/at-risk behaviors on this
project.
5. Everyone is responsible for health and safety – solicit their support and involvement.

Core Exercise 1: Leader’s Plan for Change

Briefing:
Complete the workshops from the Safety Leadership Workshop including the “Leader’s Plan for
Change” and discuss with the course tutor. Explain your rational,safety aspirations for your project and
how you intend to achieve your safety goals.
Core Exercise 2: Hazard identification and remediation
Briefing:
Form small groups as directed by the course tutor. In your allocated hazard identification room work as
a group and note down hazards and actions required to make safe, also note any good practices.
Groups will present and explain their findings to the class.
Points will be awarded based on the number of hazards identified and the suitability of the control
proposals. Points will be deducted for significant hazards that are not identified and also for unsuitable
control proposals.
Core Exercise 3: Roles and responsibilities

Briefing:
Form small groups as directed by the course tutor. For the activity specified work as a group to identify
safety roles and responsibilities under three broad headings:
 Project management
 Formen / supervisors
 Craft workers and labour
Points will be awarded based on the number of responsibilities identified and allocating them to the
appropriate group.
*Note You will find that many safety responsibilities are common across each group but the
implementation may differ. For example PPE:- Project management may be responsible for ensuring
suitable PPE is provided for the task, formen / supervisors will be responsible for ensuring the workers
are aware of the specific PPE requirements and that they are followed and craft workers and labour
are responsible for wearing PPE and reporting any issues.
Core Exercise 4: Site Layout
Briefing:
Form small groups as directed by the course tutor. Examine all relevant documents and drawings for
the task.
Task:
Use the documents and information provided to prepare a proposal for a site set up. This must
consider:
 Traffic routes
 Laydown area
 Chemical and fuel storage
43
 Material storage
 Welfare areas
 Plant and equipment placement and parking
 Emergency arrangements
 Waste storage and disposal
 Site security and access
Prepare a risk assessment for one significant aspect of the project taking into account hierarchies of
control measures.
Each group member shall prepare a short presentation (5-7 minutes) detailing one aspect of the site
establishment outlining the organisational reasons for the decisions taken and highlighting the
significant risks identified and how these will be controlled.
Groups will present and explain their proposals to the class. Delegates will analyse all presentations to
determine their effectiveness in providing a safe and efficient working environment.
