Operational Discipline Defined
DuPont defines operational discipline (or OD) as "the deeply rooted dedication and commitment by every member of an organization to carry out each task the right way every time." Expressed more succinctly, OD is "Everyone: Do It Right Every Time" (Figure 1). As applied to safety, DuPont reinforces the company's desire for a strong OD culture by stating that safety is a condition of employment.
