Are you frustrated with traditional safety metrics?
Traditional safety metrics, such as TRIFR and LTIFR, are lagging indicators. They measure the results of safety incidents, rather than the factors that contribute to them. They are a poor predictor of future safety performance and safety capacity.
Are you ready for a better way?
The Due Diligence Index - Safety (DDI-S) is the leading indicator of safety performance. It measures the safety factors that organisations need to understand leadership obligations and its safety capacity. DDI-S enables leadership to understand Work as Done and what people need to meet operational demands safely and productively. DDI-S will enable your organisation to enable your people to build and sustain work environments where its people can thrive.
Join us for the DDI-S Lag to Capacity Master Class
In this master class, you will learn how to use the DDI-S to improve your organization's safety performance. You will learn how to use the DDI-S to gain insight into engagement, hazard knowledge, compliance and operational resilience.
The DDI-S Master Class is for high-performing safety professionals who are looking for a better way to measure and improve safety performance.
To learn more about the Master Class, sign up here. We hope to see you there!
DDI-S provides organisations with a predictive measure for safety capacity, enabling boards and leadership to understand if the organisation is meeting its due diligence obligations.
what is the DDI-S?
The (DDI-S) has been developed to provide a metric for Boards and Executives of organisations to understand the presence of safety in their organisation by collecting and reporting on the state of assurance activity being taken at the organisational level.
The DDI-S examines the extent of capacity-building activity being undertaken in terms of reflecting on the investment the organisation has built up in the skills and capability of workers over and above the minimum competencies for their work. That is, the DDI-S provides an index on the extent of resourcing for enablers of safety.
The DDI-S uses as its base, the high-water mark of the legislative obligations placed on officers to exercise due diligence under health and safety laws in jurisdictions such as Australia and New Zealand.
The DDI-S is informed by an approach to health and safety that looks to build the health and safety capacity and resilience of an organisation, founded on engagement and trust with workers. It places people in an organisation at the heart of decision-making and is framed by a philosophy that sees:
People as the solution, not the problem;
Safety as the presence of positives, not the absence of negatives; and
Safety as a shared responsibility
what will you learn?
Participants will learn the concepts and implementation methods for the DDI-S.

The program runs over two weeks and consists of 3 x 90 minute sessions enhanced with self learning resources.
-
Traditional after-the-fact reporting measures such as TRIFR and LTIFR do not provide a complete picture of the health and safety activity that the Board is required to oversee. Lag measures create performance drag. There is a need to look beyond past incidents and focus on more proactive risk management and due diligence obligations.
