The goal of Behavioral Safety is to make the work environment as safe as possible. This involves constant assessments of the condition of our tools and physical space, our knowledge about the work to be done and work processes (i.e., standard operating procedures), the effectiveness of our personal motivation and the motivational and management strategies in the organization, the strategies that management employ to show the value of each individual to the organization, etc. Behavioral Safety also involves a set of principles and techniques that are used to improve safety either at the level of individuals or at the level of the organization.</p> <p class="pageContent">In this section, we will include features to provide information about assessment strategies, principles and techniques for improvement, lists of resources and behavior safety providers, state of the art technologies being developed in top behavior safety laboratories, announcements of key events.</p> <p class="pageContent">As action editor I am committed to continuous improvement and continuous refreshment of our information.
