An investment in your safety culture is an investment in your bottom line. And a culture of prevention is the foundation of an excellent operation. You won’t find the keys to safety excellence in rules, regulations and handbooks! Safety excellence is rooted in a robust safety culture. It’s about behavior, philosophy and attitude – from the boardroom to the front lines. Safety is not a priority; it is a non-negotiable, core value. In this session, we’ll discuss what is a safety culture and why it’s important, tools for leaders to drive safety culture throughout an organization, strategies to anchor your safety culture to your frontline employees, how to promote accountability, 10 leadership principles to deliver extraordinary safety results, and a game plan to establish and grow your safety culture.
