Hazard Reporting and Safety Conversations – developing your safety culture
Having a workforce that is not only adept but also confident in holding safety conversations is invaluable to any business to get everyone home safe.
In order to improve your safety culture, your workforce must be engaged in a robust intervention and hazard reporting culture. Our course focusses on making hazard reporting and safety conversations common practice and comfortable for all involved. Our course flips the traditional intervention on its head and focuses on ‘inviting’ rather than ‘stopping’. To embed a fair culture where we look out for each other’s safety as well as our own.
The delegates will witness safety conversations good and bad, and influence the communication to achieve the best outcome for both parties. Don’t worry though, no role play involved!
We identify hazards, risks, near misses and explore the importance of reporting. We also focus on communication and feedback techniques and each delegate will leave with the tools to enable them to hold safety conversations in the best way suited to them.
Following this course you will be able to:
- Confidently invite safety conversations and welcome interventions.
- Have the tools to accelerate your and your business overall safety performance through safety conversations and hazard reporting.
- Have practiced safety conversations to have an easy transition into real worklife scenarios.
- Learn importance of and reasoning behind reporting all hazards, incidents and near misses
