SUMMARY
The HSE has been involved in a number of projects to develop safety climate/ culture tools. They consider that these tools should be introduced to the wider community of potential users, both in the oil and gas industry and in other industry sectors. The emphasis is on those tools that have been developed in collaboration with the oil and gas industry or that are generic in nature so could be readily applied in this particular industry sector. This Summary Guide is intended to address three overall objectives:
1. To provide summary information on a number of questionnaire-based tools that have been developed, with the aid of Health & Safety Executive (HSE) funding, to measure the safety climate of organisations. [Summary & Part 1]
2. To carry out a detailed comparison of individual questionnaire items. [Summary & Part 2]
3. To identify, if possible, which safety climate tools and/or specific questionnaire items appear to be most useful in helping to establish the current state of maturity of an organisation or installation.
This report and the work it describes were funded by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Its contents, including any opinions and/or conclusions expressed, are those of the author(s) alone and do not necessarily reflect HSE policy
