SCI5 provides a lead indicator of behavioural risk and integrates with any safety program |
|
The SCI5 safety climate index enables organisations to identify behavioural safety risks and take clear action to develop a positive safety culture.
SCI5 was built with leading safety experts across a range of industries. SCI5 is simple, robust and provides clear understanding of safety risk around the following factors: |
 |
|
Measuring safety climate provides a direct understanding of the maturity of any safety culture |
|
Measuring safety climate is simply a way of understanding how the work environment supports or inhibits safe work practices. SCI5 reliably measures collective employee perceptions about actual safety behaviours and practices within and organisation or work group.
When properly measured, employee perceptions are a powerful early warning system for safety risks. Understanding the safety climate helps organisations protect their people from harm.
- Evidence shows that improving the workplace safety climate leads to better safety outcomes.
- Organisational leaders recognise the importance of reliable lead indicators for driving preventative action.
- Organisations need a road map to develop sustainable safety practices and behaviours that will improve safety outcomes. When things go wrong, organisations focus too heavily on the actions of individuals, rather than on the systems, processes, work practices and leadership behaviours that are within their direct span of influence.
|
Why measuring safety climate provides a clear picture of behavioural risk |
- People are socialised into the work environment
- Through this process, they learn what is acceptable and what is not
- Their behaviour is moderated by individual perceptions of the workplace
- These unique perceptions can be measured with validated safety climate tools
- Improving the safety climate leads to a reduction in the risks of negative safety outcomes

SCI5 quantifies the level of behavioural risk in organisations, complimenting any safety program |
|
As organisations reach saturation on safety messages, the impact of behavioural safety programs can diminish. SCI5 empowers safety leaders to understand what is actually happening in the safety culture, deriving a tangible understanding of risk that can be used to guide investment and measure progress.
SCI5 enables safety leaders to:

PRODUCING EASY-TO-INTERPRET RESULTS
Results are reported in a format that is easy to interpret at any level of the organisation. The unique “bubble chart” clearly shows the climate for compliance, as well as the relative climate strength.
Results can be provided for a single workgroup, a department, a physical location or an entire organisation. |
AND INSIGHT YOU CAN TRUST
SCI5 was developed by combining rigorous scientific research processes with input from leading safety experts. Features include a confidential measurement process and independent analysis of results in accordance with strict ethical guidelines.
Measures that are not validated leave your decision making and action planning to chance. |
"SCI5’s penetrating analysis enabled us to escalate and address key issues
which,
without early intervention,
would have put people at risk."
