IMPROVEMENT WORKSHOPS – KAIZEN EVENTS & LEAN / RAPID IMPROVEMENT

Kaizen Events:

Who could be better at solving safety issues than those doing the work? Your front line people are your best resource. Solving safety frustrations is about systematic focused improvement efforts. Arm your workers with revolutionary tools and concepts through our consultant’s experience rich examples. 

Kaizen Event Outcomes:

  • Learn the Six Criteria for Safety Excellence
  • Tap into front line employee’s field experience to solve unique organization issues
  • Foster authentic involvement through employee’s creation of action plan
  • Escape that status quo, and create new norms that foster safety excellence

Teams consist of 8 to ten people who are most affected by the problem they need to solve, who are sponsored by management. Teams meet for 5 to 10 days, depending on the scope of the project to make rapid improvements. 

Any safety problem is fair game for improvement. You can allow your team to choose which issue is most important to them, or look for gaps in your safety perception survey results. We’ve run teams on issues like ineffective safety committees, Near Miss Reporting processes, and other concerns like lockout/tagout or fall protection.
