23 October 2024
Free webinar!
Join us for a free,
hour-long, knowledge-sharing webinar presented by HSE and industry
experts, where we will delve into the essential components of
fostering a strong safety culture within your
organisation.
Time: 10:30am (1
hour)
Platform: An 'open-to-all'
browser-based platform, collaborating with Western Business Media
who publish Health and Safety Matters Magazine.
Organisations have a legal duty to put in place suitable
arrangements to manage health and safety. In the implementation of
these arrangements, employers should consult with their employees.
Effectively managing for health and safety is not just about having
an organisational management or a safety management system. The
success of whatever process or system is in place still hinges on
the attitudes and behaviours of people in the organisation (this is
sometimes referred to as the 'safety culture'). The advice given in
the webinar will reflect the areas that HSE will consider when
assessing the effectiveness of your arrangements.
What is included in the
webinar?
You will:
- learn how to successfully and sustainably improve safety
culture
- watch a demonstration of the HSE Safety Climate Tool and see
how it can benefit your organisation
- hear from James Bird of Kier Transportation on how Kier has
effectively utilised the Safety Climate Tool to improve safety
culture
- discover the latest data from across the UK, showcasing both
challenges and successes in safety culture enhancement
- gain insights from other delegates through an interactive live
poll which will give you a taste of our popular training course,
'Creating a Safety Culture of Excellence'

your questions answered by our panel of experts

Chris Austin, Head of Training at HSE

Chris welcomes you to this insightful and valuable
online seminar.

Phoebe Smith, Principal Human Factors Scientist
at HSE
|
Key factors to consider when building a robust safety
culture
Poor safety culture has contributed to many major incidents and
personal injuries. Phoebe will highlight how to make improvements
by adopting a holistic approach to health and safety cultural
improvement incorporating HSE's ASCENT - 'Achieving Safety Culture
Excellence Now and Tomorrow' programme.

Carl Whitman, Tool specialist at The Stationery
Office (TSO)
|
The HSE Safety Climate Tool
This tool delivers an objective measure of your 'safety climate'
- how your employees experience your safety culture. Using a
simple, online questionnaire, it explores your employees' attitudes
and perceptions in key areas, anonymously. This is a significant
starting point for any organisation looking to continually improve
and raise standards.
Carl will share some of the questions from the tool and
benchmarking data from organisations across the UK, showing where
safety culture challenges and successes are common in specific
industries.

James Bird, Head of Strategic Risk and
Behavioural Safety at Kier Transportation
|
Building Safety Culture in to a successful Health,
Safety and Wellbeing Strategy
Kier Transportation started their safety culture journey in
2018, asking the question "What can we do proactively to make our
workplace better for employees". In a comprehensive programme of
work, Kier have engaged with their workforce to improve safety
culture sustainably. James will show you how they did it.
