To achieve sustainable safety performance, you need more than just statistics and metrics. You need to understand how work actually happens. JMJ’s Integral Assessment reveals what’s enabling safe performance, what’s constraining it and why.
In many organizations, safety is well managed through metrics, systems, and compliance. These provide structure and visibility and only tell part of the story.
Organizations may believe they have a strong safety culture, until a serious incident, near miss, or recurring challenges reveal a gap between expectation and reality. That gap is not always visible in metrics or reporting, it shows up in how safety is actually delivered in day‑to‑day work.
In some cases, it becomes clear after a serious incident. In others, there is no single event, just a sense that what is being reported does not fully reflect what is happening in practice.
At this point, the question shifts to how do we improve safety. It becomes what is shaping how safety is actually experienced and delivered across your organization.
Metrics and compliance can take you so far and they don’t show what’s really driving safety performance.
The outcome is a clear, shared understanding of what is shaping safety across your organization so decisions about what to address next are grounded in how work actually happens.
JMJ’s Integral Safety Assessment evaluates the factors shaping safety performance, including leadership, culture, systems, and ways of working. It reveals what is enabling safety performance, where it is constrained, and how safety is actually experienced and delivered in practice.
Every organization operates within its own culture, pressures, and ways of working. To understand what’s really shaping your safety culture, we look beyond metrics to examine how leadership, culture and systems come together in practice.
This assessment is the starting point of your IIF™ NextGen transformation journey. It gives leaders a clear understanding of today’s reality and the opportunities for creating safer, healthier, high‑performing workplaces.
Key questions to explore
We focus on how safety is both experienced and delivered, not just what’s reported.
The reality of safety in practice and how work is carried out day to day
The perceptions
and mindsets that influence daily decisions and actions
Your organization’s leadership behaviors and preferences
Opportunities for a breakthrough in safety performance
Understanding safety requires more than analysis. It requires seeing how leadership, teams, and systems operate together in real conditions. We don’t offer generic solutions or checklists. Our assessment process is designed to uncover the true state of your safety culture across roles, sites, and leadership levels. It combines human insight with Discover, our diagnostic and analytical suite within Transformation Cloud™ to provide a connected view of your organization’s strengths, risks, and opportunities.
Our online diagnostics, delivered through Transformation Cloud™, provide real-time dashboards to visualize trends and identify areas of focus. They provide a consistent view across departments, divisions, and roles, bringing together qualitative and quantitative insights to go beyond surface metrics and enable rapid, large-scale analysis.
At the core of this approach are three proprietary diagnostics:
Captures narrative feedback from the workforce and analyzes it to surface themes, sentiment, and patterns, revealing how people really think and feel about safety, leadership, and communication.
A structured, quantitative diagnostic that benchmarks the maturity of your safety culture across key safety drivers such as leadership, trust, learning and communication, giving you a clear, data‑backed view of where your culture is strong and where deeper attention is needed.
Provides practical insight into leadership preferences and behaviors using our proprietary 12 Characteristics of Safety Leadership, helping leaders understand how their style influences safety and team culture, providing a strong foundation for targeted development
Technology alone doesn’t tell the whole story. It shows what’s happening but not always why it’s happening. To understand what is shaping safety, we combine our diagnostics with direct observation and engagement:
This provides a grounded understanding of the current reality — and the factors influencing and shaping safety.
We structure our insights around four core focus areas:
We explore how individual mindsets contribute to team and organizational culture.
We examine what employees believe about safety and leadership, and how this shapes behavior.
We dig into the drivers of those perceptions, including leadership alignment and communication.
We identify systemic risks and cultural blind spots that may hinder performance or safety outcomes.
