Enhancing Role Efficacy: An OD Intervention

Abstract

The role of mechanical/traffic inspectors and safety counsellors is of considerable importance in the prevention of rail accidents and in the development of selfprotective behaviour among the staff. Development of negative perceptions on their part is likely to lead the employees to poor work performance. This article by DM Pestonjee and Aniruddh Pandey emphasizes the need for conducting role efficacy interventions to strengthen and reinforce positive behaviours and weaken negative behaviours.
