After working in safety management for 25 years, I can sum up my most essential lessons in 5 simple points:

โ€ข Culture is the king.
โ€ข Behaviours drive outcomes.
โ€ข Positive reinforcement builds trust.
โ€ข Communication influences change.
โ€ข Environments thrive on engagement.

Dust and debris aren't just messy; they're hazardous!

Proper respiratory protection is key on construction sites. Masks aren't just for pandemics, they're essential for lung health.

Am I right?

What an amazing building so much detail in architecture.

Its โ€œThe Garrick Innโ€ Stratford upon Avon

A timber framed building that dates back to the 1400's.

Safety isn't the No.1 priority of any business.

Production is.

Always has been.

And always will be.

Leadership and effective safety and risk management must support and improve production, not work against it.

Would you agree?

Theyโ€™d probably more than hurt if they fell.

Roofers quote:

A behavioural reminder.

If your safety conversations donโ€™t nudge people to do something differently, they're just noise.

Influencing safe behaviour 101:

Discipline = get less of it.

Coach = get more of it.

i agree, but it would probably need much bigger numbers, very small at the moment in comparison and not growing that quickly.

X has changed and is still my fav. This place is very slow and early days for it to become anything better. Time will tell.

I can recognise that. We have no footpaths only grass verges and little streetlighting where we live, the nearest shop is almost a mile away.
