Safety leadership

Many organisations have set goals of zero harm and no losses.  Such goals are only achievable through effective leadership of workplace and systems safety.  The role of the leader is to inspire and motivate, and to challenge the organisation on whether the right things are being done.  The effective leader sets a strong safety leadership example.  Others see this and know what the leader cares about. This creates employee engagement, sets an environment where safety matters and employees choose to do the right thing.
