Abdelsalam Yasseen, HSE Leader, Baker Hughes
As safety performance improves, incident rates decline, but with fewer incidents comes fewer opportunities to learn.
This session challenges the traditional approach of only learning from accidents and near misses by exploring the untapped potential of “normal work.” Abdul will discuss how everyday operations can provide valuable insights, how to effectively engage frontline employees to surface challenges, and introduce a practical tool, Finding the Next Incident, to systematically capture and act on those learnings before an incident occurs.
Key Takeaways:
- Understand why focusing only on incidents limits progress and how normal work can reveal hidden risks and improvement opportunities.
- Discover techniques to actively gather and apply the knowledge of frontline employees in shaping safer, more effective processes.
- Learn how to identify and address potential issues before they escalate into incidents.
- Gain a step-by-step understanding of how the Finding the Next Incident tool works and how to implement it within your own operations.
