Culture of Wellness
• What is culture?
• What is wellness?
• What is safety?
• What is profitability?
![Page 12: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Organizational Culture
Zohar, 2010• Organizational culture can be thought of
as “the interaction between the organization and individuals”.
• Good Culture?
• Bad Culture?
![Page 13: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Safety Culture?
• What is safety culture?• Many things to many people…
“Top-level managers create policies, procedures, programs, budgets, and provide for personnel, equipment, and training and, in doing so, create the culture of the company.”
![Page 14: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Safety Culture Concepts
• Company leaders create organizational infrastructure, establish hierarchy of managers, provide resources, and deploy their policies and procedures, thereby setting the tone for day-to-day priorities, work safe behaviors, adherence to safety standards, and the consequence of non-compliance.
![Page 15: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Safety Climate?
• What is safety climate?• How is it different than culture?
Safety climate results from the enacted policies and procedures related to safety and the employee’s perceptions and assumptions about the real priorities and consistency of management policies and procedures. What if…?
![Page 16: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Climate vs Culture
• We measure climate to understand culture
Climate and culture exist simultaneously and thus are influenced from the bottom up, and top-down interactions and perceptions may vary in relation to one’s level within the organization…
![Page 17: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Cultural Difference
• What affects do cultural differences present when creating safety culture?
• Do people from other cultures make the same personal and professional assumptions about their workplace cultures in America?–We think not….

Domains of Climate
Zohar, 1990
1) Management commitment to safety:
#1 – Most important
2) Organizational status of safety officer:
Does the S&H manager meet with top management? $?
![Page 19: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Domains of Climate
3) Organizational status of safety committee: Is the committee real, funded,
respected, sought after?
4) Successful safety training:
Who is trained? What is offered? Is training supported? Effective?
![Page 20: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Domains of Climate
5) Level of risk at the workplace: How do employees feel about the risk in their jobs?Conditions? Exposures?
6) Effect of safe conduct on social status:Is safe work supported? Reinforced? Admired?

Domains of Climate
7) Effect of safe conduct on promotion within the organization:
Is safety health part of the annual review? Is it
supported?8) Effects of required work pace on safe
work practices:What if?

Safety Culture
Zohar, 2010• 202 studies had been published on safety
climate in numerous work environments over a span of 30 years and that a preponderance of evidence demonstrates that… a relationship existed between safety climate criteria and injury and illness outcomes.
»Culture matters!
![Page 23: Corporate Wellness Meets Safety Culture: Why Protecting Workers is Good Business David P. Gilkey, D.C., Ph.D., CPE Carla Lopez del Puerto, Ph.D. Department.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649cd95503460f949a31cb/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Safety Culture
Zohar, 2010• Stated that safety climate measures are
leading indicators of injury and illness and that leadership can change and improve safety climate and thus reduce injury and illness in the workplace.
• Leading vs Lagging indicators of Safety?
