Making Safety Personal: The Foundation for Success In the world of workplace safety, the role of a safety manager is pivotal. These dedicated professionals work tirelessly to ensure the well-being of employees, protect company assets, and maintain regulatory compliance. But beyond the regulations and procedures, a fundamental aspect often gets overlooked: making safety and health personal. When safety becomes personal, employees are more likely to embrace it as a way of life rather than a job requirement. Safety managers play a pivotal role in fostering this connection. Today, I want to discuss how safety committees can infuse a personal touch into safety management. Safety committees help foster a strong safety culture within the organization. 1. When employees from different departments and levels collaborate on safety issues, it sends a clear message that safety is a collective responsibility and a top priority. 2. They also provide a platform for open and transparent communication between employees and management regarding safety concerns, incidents, and potential hazards. This can lead to quicker resolution of issues and better safety planning. 3. Employees on safety committees feel a sense of ownership and empowerment regarding safety matters. They become more engaged and proactive in promoting safe practices and procedures among their peers. Those are just a few examples of how site safety committees play a crucial role in creating a safer, more efficient, and more responsible workplace. #currentbuilders #safetycommittees #makingsafetypersonal #safetyculture #constructionsafety

What are the benefits of having a written safety policy for your workplace? 😎 From my perspective A written safety plan along with management’s support for the plan’s implementation like investing in resources and equipment, and allocating time for employee training helps emphasize the importance of safety in the workplace. It also shows that the company cares about the safety and well-being of the employees. Getting employees involved in the development and implementation of the safety plan, and familiar with the roles and responsibilities of workers, supervisors, and management personnel allows them to have a voice and enhances buy-in of the plan. This provide accountability and a cooperative environment and makes the employees more engaged, which underscores the point that everyone plays a role in safety. When employees believe the company cares about their safety and that everyone in the organization plays a role, it enhances the positive safety culture of the organization and the overall morale of the workforce. #HSE #health_Safety #management #organization #company

Who is responsible for Safety? 👷 The easy answer is every one, but has that really been made clear to your team and employees. Safety responsibilities need to be more than just a line in your job description. Laying out in detail the expectations will lay the groundwork for your culture. For example: ✅ You are expected to speak up when you feel the job is unsafe or you are not properly trained. ✅ You must follow all safe work practices, SOPs, and company policies. ✅ When you see a hazard, you are expected to report it to your supervisor. ✅ If you see something that may injure a person or the company, speak up and report it. There is a huge difference between these and "follow all safety rules," that you see in most job descriptions. 👇 Check out the link below for more ways to layout your safety roles and responsibilities. Let me know in the comments how you make safety more than just a byline? https://lnkd.in/gYqhFC7Q #safetygeek #safetymanagement #safetymanager #EHS #Healthandsafety #rolesandresponsibilities #safetyaccountability #accountability #safetyresponsibility #hardhat #yellowhardhat #fallprotection #safetygloves
