Long Operations partnered with Sentis to put all personnel through ZIP
(Zero Incident Process) with the intention of reducing the number of
workplace injuries. ZIP is a behavioural-based safety training package
designed specifically to give participants insight into the way they think.
The process encouraged participants to consider how their perceptions,
emotions, attitude and values combine to influence their tolerance of risk
ensuring their own safety.
The process moved one step beyond other behaviour–based safety
training to engage participants in the underlying psychological drivers of
behaviour.
Participants were encouraged to remain mindful about their ‘BIG5 ‘– the
five most valuable things in each of their lives.
Participants were taught about the learning process and their capacity
to maintain attention. In essence employees were reminded that undue
focus on a single activity exposes them to potential hazards that are readily
observed given a general mindfulness of one’s working environment.
