Abstract

Exceptionally, René Amalberti is bringing us not one but two opinion pieces (Tribunes de la sécurité industrielle) on safety culture. In this first opinion piece of the two-part series, René Amalberti, Director of FonCSI, presents the two opposing schools of thought in this area: those who align values and practices, and those who consider that behaviour needs to be changed in order to achieve an optimal safety culture. In the second piece of this series on safety culture, René Amalberti will present a new approach as a way out of this impasse.
