Blue Ox Success Series: The 10 Commandments of Safety

Description

All workplaces must have procedures to enhance safety behavior while at work. Not only is it the law, it’s also the right thing to do to keep employees safe. But just because a business has safety rules, doesn’t mean people are following them.

We’ll examine the critical role of leadership, communication, and accountability as it applies to fostering a culture of safety. From frontline leadership, speaking up if we see something, to the 3 Es of safety accountability, these are attitudes and behaviors all organizations can practice so everyone stays safe on the job.

Who Should Attend

• Leaders, managers, and owners
• Team members who need safety training or a refresh on safety practices
• Anyone concerned about safety in your organization
