Hogan Releases Paper on SafeSystem, Shows How Personality Influences Behavior

Organizations need more than a reliable safety program, studies show

Tulsa, OK — June 24, 2010 — Hogan Assessment Systems, a global personality assessment provider that helps companies select employees, develop leaders, and identify talent, today released its paper, “How to Improve the Safety Climate in Your Organization,” available for free download now.

Safety training can help employees become safer, but if an organization doesn’t have insight into how individuals contribute to the safety climate, even the most extensive safety program will deliver limited success. Similarly, companies that don’t know exactly how safe or unsafe they are put themselves and their employees at risk.

Only organizations that take a comprehensive view of the overall safety environment will be able to achieve long-term, sustainable improvements. How can you assess the current safety climate of your organization and your employees’ safety awareness? Your organization can start by looking at the entire enterprise, then move down to individual and team safety assessments as well as safety coaching to improve results and engagement through safe work practices.

Personality impacts behavior. Is a worker panicky or strong? Defiant or compliant? By focusing on people and not systems, your organization can achieve actionable results that are centered on individual accountability. To find out how, download Hogan Assessment Systems’ latest complimentary paper, “How to Improve the Safety Climate in Your Organization,” for answers from this international authority in personality assessment and consulting.

This paper explores how, building on 30 years of research and validation, Hogan created SafeSystem, the only solution that gets to the heart of the workplace-safety conundrum. Hogan will explain how to create a climate of safety based on three components:

  • Worker personality
  • A culture of worker engagement
  • Organizational leadership

Organizations don’t need another safety program, but they do need a tool to address the missing link in safety programs – a worker’s personality.
