Susan – I agree it is challenging to apply industrial-style BBS in an R&D environment. You really do need a custom approach using your current safety structure as a starting point. I would think, though, that Centocor or one of the other J&J companies would have already set something up an a corporate basis since your operation is part of such a large group of R&D facilities. If you strike out, please let me know and I’ll be glad to help get you started. There are also a number of good texts on the subject, though none that really focus on R&D type operations.

Subject: [DCHAS-L] Behavior Based Safety programs for
R&D
Can anyone recommend any programs or consultants who have experience in promoting behavior based safety programs for R&D environments? I just don’t feel most of the “canned” programs will be well accepted in an R&D environment. My site is industry which is probably easier than academia but still challenging. Your thoughts or suggestions would be most welcome.
Thanks,
