Check in honestly
Before the task, each worker rates how they are right now: tired or rested, rushing or deliberate, distracted or focused, upset or calm, overconfident or aware.
STCKY Energy™ · New for Q4 2026
Your JSA was completed. Was it used, or filed and forgotten?
Most JSAs are signed at the start of the shift and never looked at again, because a form on a clipboard does not make anyone stop and talk. STCKY Energy turns the JSA into a working huddle: crews identify, discuss, and control the energy that can seriously injure or kill them, right before exposure, and leaders can see that it happened.
- No pencil-whipping.
- No autopilot.
- No mindless sign-offs.
The hard truth
The hazards that kill people are often the ones they've stopped seeing.
Most serious injuries don't happen because a JSA wasn't completed.
They happen because hazards became routine, assumptions replaced discussion, and workers stopped actively recognizing the energy around them. Your crews don't need another checklist. They need better safety decisions.
- Hazards became normalized
- Crews rushed
- Assumptions replaced discussion
- Conditions changed mid-task
- People stopped actively thinking
Stay aware. Control the energy. Protect each other.
STCKY energies: the uncontrolled energy behind serious injuries.
Workers normalize this exposure until something goes wrong. STCKY Energy makes it visible on every job, every day.

How a STCKY huddle works
Real thinking before the work starts.
Built for the job site: big tap targets, voice input, and a flow crews can finish together.
Identify the energy
Crews select every STCKY energy the task involves. Answers are checked against the task plan, and anything missed is highlighted before they can continue.
Confirm the Four T's
Training, Tools, Team, and Time. The crew rates its readiness in each so gaps surface before the work starts, not after.
Ask WTFP?
What's the worst thing that can happen? Workers name the potential impact of an uncontrolled energy release and rate their fear factor.
Control it
Remove, Control, or Shield. The crew chooses an approach and explains it in their own words. Typed or spoken, right from the job site.
Recognize the effort
Completing a thoughtful huddle earns points, so the behavior you want repeated gets reinforced, which is the heart of Bill's positive reinforcement approach.
Through the whole shift
Safety that doesn't stop at the morning huddle.
Stop the Job
Anyone can stop work and explain why. Supervisors are notified immediately and can approve a workaround.
Report a Hazard
Describe what you see, tag the energy involved, and post it to the Hazard STCKY Wall for review.
Debrief the day
What worked? What didn't? What changed, and what was unexpected? End-of-shift learning is captured while it is fresh.
Earn recognition
Points for huddles, debriefs, hazard reports, and stopping the job. Leaders set the values for their company.
For safety leaders
Stop measuring participation. Start driving engagement.
A completed form tells you a box was checked. STCKY Energy shows you whether people were thinking, and where the risk is building.
What leaders finally get visibility into
- Serious injury and fatality exposure
- Quality of field conversations
- Human-factor risk trends
- Repeating exposure patterns
- Whether crews are actually thinking critically
Built-in reports
STCKY measures
Critical Thinking
How well crews question assumptions and think before they act.
Hazard Recognition
How well crews identify and understand the hazards that matter.
Fatality Exposure Awareness
How well crews understand and manage the risks that could be fatal.
Better conversations. Better decisions. Safer outcomes.
