Our Process

The Organisational Human Factor Benchmark is the first of its kind to provide real-time analytical business intelligence software packed with powerful statistical analyses to serve as a decision support system for the "soft-issues" in companies.

Methodology

We measure individuals by means of Business Intelligence (BI). BI classically refers to computer-based techniques used in analysing business data, such as sales revenue by products and/or departments or associated costs and incomes in order to support better business decision-making. Business Intelligence serves as a decision support system for companies to make informed, evidence-based business decisions.

Organisational Assessments

We survey organisational climate, wellness and resilience, to provide management information regarding employee satisfaction, (and) the state of the organisation, in order to address concerns, such as the total amount of income lost on a monthly basis, due to dissatisfaction in the work place, as well as facilitate mergers and organisational development interventions. This assessment allows for the constructive development of organisations into more efficient functioning units, and provides clear direction for development initiatives in the future

Strategy

Competencies will be assessed through psychometric instruments. The OHFB assessment instruments interface could be modified according to the requirements of the organisation. Additionally, depending on the employee's level of computer skills and literary skills the SABFI program or hard copy could be used. The OHFB (Organisational Human Factor Benchmark) psychometric tests has a proven validity and reliability, and the total results could be modified, by means of removing inaccurate data, so that only 100% reliable data could be used.

“The PFI audit was conducted during 2013 and it was found that there were “a few Ferrari’s with empty fuel tanks”. The PFI surely contributed to the DMS bottom-line. From the trends, it was clear that there were major improvements in the Production Output and Safety Indicators, while the Maintenance Costs remained the same.”

- Solly Nkosi | Managing Director | DMS Powders

“Steinmüller Africa’s Sasol Mill Maintenance (MM) team in Secunda significantly improved their safety record last year after struggling with one Recordable Case (RC) safety incident on average every two months previously.”

- Leon Botha | Talent and Communication Manager | Bilfinger Power Africa

“The Steinmüller Africa milling plant maintenance team, currently contracted by Sasol Synfuels has reached 200 days without a recordable case (RC) on the 24 November, 2014. This is a considerable achievement if one considers the safety performance 6-12 months ago off which a total of 5 RC’s were recorded from August 2013 up to May 2014, which equated to an RC rate of “1 RC every 60 days”.
Steinmüller believes in the concept of "Zero Harm" and strives to achieve that in the course of its operations. Scientifically it has been proven that the main driver of safety incidents is a low level of psychological fitness of employees, which is the result of low levels of energetic and motivation fitness.”
