Train Supervisors to ‘DoThe Right Thing’ in Safety … for Just $99!

These days, ethics are a hot topic in American business, and nowhere more so than in safety. Yet many supervisors continue to place other objectives before “doing the right thing.” Here’s a program to help them adjust their priorities.

John supervises a production area. You and he are both friends as well as co-workers, and have been for years. One day, you learn that he’s allowing serious safety violations to speed up production. You call him on it.

“Look, I’m behind on my quota, and if I don’t catch up, my job is toast. Let it go this time, OK?” John pleads.

You and John both face ethical challenges. John’s is safety vs. production, with survival thrown in. Yours is safety vs. loyalty to a friend. He’s decided what to do about his dilemma.

How will you decide yours?

Especially in the case of safety, ethics play a major part in business. There are so many ways to cut corners, to get the job out faster, cheaper, easier, if safety considerations are sidelined. You know it’s wrong. But when the chips are down, some supervisors aren’t so sure. Is there any way to make them know how important doing the right thing is?

One way is through BLR’s Click ’n Train PowerPoint® program, Workplace Ethics for Supervisors.

In 32, carefully and concisely written slides, your colleagues will learn:

--Why Ethics are Important. Trainees learn to understand the wider effect of unethical decisions, and how short-term advantage can cause long-term damage … to the company’s safety record, financial results, image, even its existence.

--Ethics and the Law. In recent years, and often in cases involving safety, the government has toughened up on unethical decisions. Sarbanes-Oxley and other laws punish violators with fines, lawsuits, forfeitures, recalls and, sometimes, shutdown of operations. More important, where an ethical lapse has violated the law, the entire organization is often liable for the actions of just one individual.

--Reasons for Unethical Behavior. Trainees learn to recognize the justifications often given for wrong moves, such as loyalty, pressure to succeed, or personal problems. They also learn such reasons are just that … justifications.

--Signs You Are Behaving Unethically. The program makes trainees aware of the feelings and thoughts that signal they’re making a wrong decision.

--How to Make Ethical Decisions. The program offers a multi-step process for deciding difficult matters, considering the law, their decision’s effect on others and themselves, and simple fairness.

Fully-Scripted, Supplementary Materials Included
