Two surveys were conducted simultaneously to determine the perception of safety, leadership and the risk among drilling employees working at rig sites and those office-based. The surveys were one of the tools used to assess the readiness of drilling employees to apply Behavioral-Based Safety Process (BBS). The office-based survey was accessible online and (n=188) employees responded. The survey is based on the Management Practice Survey that explores that perception of employees on rewards, training, management commitment, communication and feedback, selection and participation. The rig site survey included face to face interviews covering (n=253) workers at (n=17) rigs. This survey is based on the Work Safety Scale (WSS) that examines rig crew perception on the nature of their job, the behavior of colleagues and supervisors regarding safety, management safety practice and safety policies and procedures. Findings suggested that majority of drilling employees agree on the importance of reward and recognition in promoting safety culture and maintaining long-term safety behavior.
