Public Comments SCL 2.0

In recent months we have worked hard on the 2.0 version of the Safety Culture Ladder. The main purpose of this revision is to make the SCL more user-friendly. We have already collected a lot of comments from certifying bodies and others. Now we are asking you for your comments.

So what are the biggest changes?

• Better recognisability for all sectors / all ‘railway terms’ have been removed;
• The 6 business aspects have been replaced by 5 themes. Each theme has sub-themes;
• The descriptions have been formulated in ascending order over the steps and a step 1 has been added;
• The descriptions have been made narrative, so-called ‘storytelling’;
• The assessment no longer uses a points system;
• The assessment focuses on observing attitude and behaviour;
• Criteria have been drawn up with which the reporting must comply.
