As I started to indicate earlier, some companies may—and I'm not talking about any one company, but just in general—take a very bureaucratic approach to safety management systems, assuming that the documents are just a manual; whereas in true safety management, the best principles of safety management boil down to having processes in place that identify hazards, having very good internal incident reporting systems and follow-up on incidents before they lead to accidents, and having a positive safety culture in the company.
Some organizations, maybe partly as a result of the infrastructure to support it, of the internal knowledge within the company, or of whatever their priorities are, may not be moving as far along the continuum as they could be or should be or as we would like to see this far in.
