ACT(S), or Accelerated Culture Transformation (Safety), is a tailored strategy to rapidly elevate your organisation’s safety culture to its highest maturity within 12 months. It starts with a comprehensive assessment of your current safety culture, forming the basis for a customised plan developed with leadership. ACT(S) empowers employees through targeted training and communication, fostering a safety-first mindset. This process aligns leadership, refines social intelligence, and enhances safety management, leading to more predictable and reliable outcomes.

ACT(S) is designed for any organisation aspiring to elevate and transform its OSH culture to the highest maturity level. It’s designed to work for companies of all sizes and industries. Whether you’re just starting out or well-established, ACT(S) can help you raise your safety standards. It provides a clear plan for making safety a top priority and offers the tools and support to make it happen. With ACT(S), you can create a safer workplace and set your organisation up for long-term success in safety.

The ACT(S) process is made up of 5 'Phases', grounded in Fusion's innovative Codebreaker OSH framework.

The process utilises a suite of highly effective tools to drive transformation.

A key component of this transformation involves building Safety Leadership Capability through resources available at the HeroCODE Academy, alongside other comprehensive safety management solutions.

THE FIVE PHASES

Phase 1

Diagnose

The client determines the scope of work. Company/
Country/ Project / Site).

Once this is completed the operational psychological safety
of the workplace is diagnosed and assessed using a
Culture Survey ( we use the MOSS or Codebreaker
assessment however, a customer Specific Culture Survey
can be utilised.

Survey diagnostic information is used to inform the
Executive Leadership and ACT(S) Leadership Team during
the development of goals and a customised strategy.

Phase 2

Prime

The ownership and commitment of Executive Leadership and
Operational Leadership teams will play a pivotal role in the
success of the culture transformation.

In Phase 2 - Prime, we brief Executive Leadership on the
principles of Collective Safety Leadership and subsequently select
an ACT(S) Leadership Team responsible for implementation. Once
this team is selected we then Instill the unique skill set to lead the
accelerated culture transformation (Safety).

Once the teamis primed with the skills we then facilitate the
development of goals and a customised strategy specific to the
scope of work.

Phase 3

Total Capability

In Phase 3 - Total Capability we build the Collective Safety Leadership
Capability of the Workforce. We start by focusing on building the
capability of Formal Leaders, then Informal Leaders, We then bring it all
together building the collective safety leadership in teams through the
Weak Signals Workshops.

If the strategy includes a focus on the Management of Safety, we build
total capability by focusing on Critical Risk and Safety management
System elements.

It is important to capitalise on this new knowledge developed in step 3,
sowe continue our commitment to practice through Phase 4 -
Performance Coaching

Phase 4

Performance Coaching

The broad objective of Phase 4 - Performance Coaching is to to ensure
the competencies developed in Phase 3 are reflected in workplace
practice. The ultimate objective is active "Collective safety leadership"
through psychological safety, a culture of trust, and courage
(empowerment) at all levels in the organisation. This is only achieved
through practice, action learning and in-field coaching.

During this phase, there is also a commitment to practicing safety
management systems requirements and to refine and deploy technical
and system capability.

Phase 5

Calibrate and Celebrate

Objective of Phase 5 is to reassess the overall progress of the workplace
using the MOSS or the Codebreaker Assessment tool (CAT). We can tie
this review back to the ACT(S) implementation team Goals and Strategy to
determine success. We can also Celebrate key teams that have done well
with respect to Collective Safety Leadership.

Often there is still work to be done for the Leadership of OSH or the
Management of OSH and next steps are determined by the ACT(S)
leadership team.
