Safety Moment - We Must Stop Seeing Workers As A Problem To Be Fixed

Thanks to Sidney Dekker for this Safety Moment.  

We have it all wrong and this OE moment is a great discussion to either play or have with your leadership.  Don't wait for this conversation to happen.  Make this conversation happen as soon as you can.

The way we see our workers sets the mindset for the way we solve problems in our organizations.  If we see our workers as problems that need to be fixed, we go out and fix and fire workers.

If we see our workers as solutions to be harnessed, we use the profound knowledge of our workers to both problem identify and problem solve.

Now, which do you think is better?
