The other day we saw this question asked by a Safety Professional. Can there be too much safety presence on a worksite? We wondered how does this presence work for or against companies' goals to build Safety Culture and in turn, have a low-maintenance Safety Program?

Most companies see Safety as a cost or expense, the Safety Professional’s job is just to make sure they are in compliance. To change this, we need to show that Safety can add value to our company. The Safety program should be focused on serving our company and helping it reach its goals. 

Safety Professionals face stigma for the jobs and roles they have the responsibility to perform on and off the worksite. One way to combat this is to show up and gain trust by demonstrating the hard and soft skills of a best-in-class safety leader.

Many Supervisors and Managers receive little to no training on how to be Safety Leaders. Their job is about making sure the work gets done correctly. 

Have you ever been afraid to speak up because you felt that if you said something you would get fired?

Every company wants to get better at what they do!

How many times have you heard Safety Professionals be referred to as Safety Enforcers?

Do you think that your workers are too old school to use safety software?
