Consumers Energy is the major utility in Michigan. In 2005, it initiated an enterprisewide safety culture change initiative that resulted in a 90 percent reduction of injuries. Employee engagement is often propagated as a solution for safety problems, but building a multi-site structure of 101 grassroots safety culture teams and implementing hundreds of improvement projects is a rare achievement. This session will be presented by the originator of the Grassroots Safety Leadership Methodology and two employee leaders – one union and one management – of the Consumers Energy Safety Culture Team, which has led the process within the company over the past decade.
