June is National Safety Month! Let's prioritize safety in all aspects of our lives - at work, at home, and in our communities. By raising awareness and taking proactive steps to prevent accidents and injuries, we can create a safer and healthier environment for everyone. Remember, safety is not just a goal, it's a way of life. Let's work together to promote a culture of safety and make a positive impact this National Safety Month and beyond!

Having a great safety culture is a team effort.

Not only this week, but every week! I acknowledge every company's safety culture and related activities, but I want to take a moment to appreciate and highlight Lead Foreman Carlos Areas (Civil Texas). As we emphasize Safety Week at Keeley to discuss, celebrate, share stories and lessons learned. I wanted to take a minute to say: This is what it’s about!!! We all have our reasons! Without any request to participate, I noticed his baseball cap. His children had decorated his hat several weeks ago as a reminder for him to return home and to remind him that he is loved every day. This could be his personal motivation and "reason why." I have observed similar practices at other companies where we take a moment to find a piece of art, a letter, or a picture to place in our hard hats as a reminder of our "Why." Let's encourage all members of our work groups to discover their own "Why" and understand the importance of it. Emphasizing the significance of working safely not only ensures our well-being on the job but also enables us to work together effectively and return home to our loved ones every day. Let's make safety a priority, not just for ourselves, but for those we care about.

SAFETY, SECOND NATURE “Safety is not merely a set of guidelines or protocols to be followed; it should be an inherent part of our culture and mindset. It’s about fostering a workplace where everyone feels responsible for their own safety and the safety of others. When safety becomes second nature, it ceases to be an obligation and becomes a way of life.” Geoff Chambers, Director of Safety Learn more about RGC's Culture of Safety at https://rabren.com/safety/

consider safety on all you do

Safety starts with me��. Our safety stand downs have changed over the years: from a top down tell approach to supporting colleagues in developing their own personal commitments to safety. Organisations don’t change; people do.

SAFETY IS OUR CULTURE & DELIVRING THE BEST IS OUR PRACTICE

Positive things embracing a culture of safety and empowerment will do for you: ✅ Foster a work environment where safety transcends mere compliance. ✅ Encourage more engaged and proactive teams, reducing accidents and promoting a healthier workplace. ✅ Develop a business model that seamlessly integrates safety and empowerment, fostering innovation and growth. Negative things it will do for you: ❌ Requires a shift in mindset and possibly reallocating resources initially. One clearly outweighs the other. If you would like a revitalised approach to safety that encourages growth and innovation and can put up with an initial shift in mindset and resource allocation, you should join me on 11th October for the "The Safety Paradox: From Skydiving to Scaffolds" event.

Psychological safety is a vital part of our culture, fostering inclusion, innovation, and high performance at Metso. 🚀 To support this, we are rolling out Psychological Safety Training for our employees, learning together how we all can contribute to creating a safe environment where everyone feels comfortable speaking up and seeking help without fear of negative consequences. 🌟 Minna Jürgens (she/her), Director of Talent & Development recently discussed this important topic with Justin Ryan, Vice President of Material Transportation, who emphasizes the critical role psychological safety plays in the workplace. 💡Justin reflects on his leadership journey and military career and notes, "I've understood the importance of psychological safety and its impact on thinking, behavior, and performance. Never stop learning." Swipe to learn more about Justin's thoughts on psychological safety. 👉

And this is precisely how you create trusting cultures and remarkable safety performance!
