演講大綱：
One of the first lessons in behavioral science is that behavior is a function of its consequences. If we want to change behavior, we must change its consequences. Perhaps a second lesson is that antecedents, or the things that happen before behavior, are weaker or less effective for creating change. However, in occupational safety and health certain types of antecedents are paradoxically more important to address and more powerful than behavioral consequences. An example is removing or reducing physical and psychosocial hazards. In this talk I’ll describe this prevention paradox and share several strategies for putting “first things first” in your injury prevention and health promotion efforts.
講者簡介：
Dr. Olson is Professor of Occupational Health Psychology at the Rocky Mountain Center for Occupational and Environmental Health at the University of Utah. His work has focused on improving the safety and health of isolated workers in demanding jobs. Dr. Olson has led five randomized controlled trials of workplace interventions that have included uniquely effective programs for home care workers, commercial drivers, and other populations in high need. Dr. Olson is a founding investigator and past Co-Director of the Oregon Healthy Workforce Center - a NIOSH Center of Excellence in Total Worker Health®. For over a decade he provided leadership for Oregon’s expanded occupational health surveillance program, which included workplace fatality surveillance, investigation, and prevention. Current projects, and those in development, focus on an intervention to address chronic pain among home care workers, the health impacts of schedule and sleep regularity among shift workers, and on integrating environmental and occupational health interventions.
