According to Geller, there are seven basic principles of BBS
(1) intervention that is focused on employee behavior
(2) identification of external factors that will help understand and improve employee behavior (from the perspective of safety in the workplace)
(3) direct behavior with activators or events antecedent to the desired behavior, and motivation of the employee to behave as desired with incentives and rewards that will follow the desired behavior.
(4) focus on the positive consequences that will result from the desired behavior as a way to motivate employees:
(5) application of the scientific method to improve attempts at behavioral interventions:
(6) use of theory to integrate information rather than to limit possibilities; and
(7) planned interventions with the feelings and attitudes of the individual employee in mind.
