203 - Create a Vibrant Safety Culture -- Lead the Way to an Incident-Free Workplace (Room 361A-C)

20 Oct 18
8:00 AM - 4:30 PM
Safety leaders face a special set of challenges when it comes to safety performance. Not only do they have to understand a wide array of safety requirements, but they also need to possess the social skills to influence people to perform better. This engaging session helps safety leaders develop those skills and create a vibrant safety culture that everyone will buy in to. We’ll discuss how to increase your influence as a safety leader and better inspire employees to take to heart their company’s safety and health values. You’ll learn how to listen with purpose to find out what’s really going on in the field, overcome the fatigue and apathy that blur employees’ focus and block their attention,  market and “sell” the benefits of your safety program to employees, inspire and motivate employees to be proud of their safe behavior, reduce employee stress – a common root cause of accidents and health problems, and develop a valuable in-house safety marketing plan.
