The Silent Danger: Five Critical Conversations That Ensure Workplace Safety
In arecentstudy, our partner VitalSmarts revealed that when it comes to workplace safety, the phrase "it was an accident waiting to happen" is often true. The unpleasant secret behind most injuries is that someone actually anticipated the danger, but was reluctant or unable to speak up. As a result, the greatest danger to workplace safety comes not from ignorance or inattention to risks, but from silence.
In 2007 alone, more than 4 million people were injured in workplace accidents and 5,703 people died at work. While these injuries cost companies up to $48.6 billion, the cost in terms of human lives and health is incalculable.
Our partner VitalSmarts has uncovered five "unspoken" workplace threats in US organizations. 93 percent of employees say people are at risk of one or more of these five unspeakables, and only one in four people who recognize these threats speak up.
The competence required to recognize and address these five "unspeakable" non-negotiables is the missing part of the security culture in most companies.
Learn how you can break the culture of silence in your organization and reap enormous benefits in both health and performance.
Exceptions are made to safety practices due to shortcuts, deadlines, meeting targets, emergencies, etc.
Safety rules are ignored because they are perceived as excessive.
People are afraid to speak up about security breaches for fear of being perceived as not being a "team player"
In this presentation you will learn how you can break the culture of silence and resistance in your organization and achieve tremendous benefits in both safety and performance.
