Safety is a one-time shot. Much of the safety training out there is based on policy, procedure, and compliance. While this information is necessary and valuable to every organization’s safety program, there has been a missing link in getting everyone on board and taking responsibility for being safe. The training instills the emotional components of safety and enables each participant to discover their purpose in being safe and answer the question, WHY? Why is it important for me to be safe? A whole new approach to safety. Breakthrough Safety is an intensive-style 2.5-day course that provides participants with the skills and tools to create sustainable behavioural change in the work environment.
I entered the training with an open mind and no preconceived notions. If you listen and hear what is being taught and look at the big picture you will leave this training changed. The first night I was in a place that I did not expect. Reflection is not a normal trait for me. I returned to work Monday and started talking to various other leaders and let them know I will make Atwell safer, and I will ensure every employee knows they have support.
I learned that if I change the way I approach safety, I will get different results and foster a culture of safety.
