Behavioural safety training programme for utilities sector
Behavioural safety training and accident reduction specialists Azea Ltd announced the launch of a new campaign to promote their behavioural safety training programmes aimed at improving workplace safety and reducing workplace accidents in the energy & utilities sector.
The campaign called ‘Create your Safety Bubble in 2013’ will focus on delivering messages to organisations in the construction, mining, rail and utilities sectors, to enable them to achieve long term positive change within 12 months. Azea has worked with a broad range of clients from the utilities industry to provide safety training solutions designed to improve workplace safety culture, improve productivity and ultimately reduce workplace accidents. Clients include Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions, Amec, National Grid, Enterprise, Babcock.
“Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions is one of the UK’s leading utility suppliers, and the safety of our employees is our top priority. Over a seven-year relationship, Azea has delivered a number of bespoke employee behavioural safety projects for Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions, consistently providing above industry average results. I would not hesitate to recommend them to other companies looking to enhance the culture and safety mind set within their own organisation”. UK Training Manager, Balfour Beatty Utility Solutions.
The Azea programme produces positive outputs which allows employees to
- Understand the programme (knowledge dispels fear)
- Work together in harmony (creating a common goal drives performance)
- Aim for objectives within the programme (motivates through setting achievable goals)
- Adhere to something that they believe in (if they understand and believe in it they will accept it)
Azea offers a variety of structured programmes to fit all companies’ budgets and timeframes. The Safety Bubble campaign has been designed so that it can fit into any company’s productivity cycle.

Bruce Durham, Azea Director of Training said:
“When one person is inspired to safeguard their own working area (anything within arm’s reach) they create their own Safety Bubble. When everyone is inspired to do this, all these safe working areas come together to form a large Safety Bubble. This protects the individuals, teams, contracts and the company as a whole”.
He went on to say:
“To keep this Safety Bubble effective all actions are preceded by this simple question: ‘Will it pop my bubble?’ - If the action is unsafe and could pop yours or anyone else’s Safety Bubble then you simply don’t do it. It’s very easy to understand and everybody gets it. That’s why our clients are so successful at reducing accident rates, improving culture and retaining highly skilled employees. It’s not what we deliver that’s important. It’s how your employees act after we work with them that matters”.
