Registration is from 8:00 – 8:30 a.m. | Continental Breakfast for Attendees

Most executives and managers understand the importance and role of a safety program in preventing employees from injury and contributing to the financial success of the organization. 

Less understood are the specific elements that comprise successful safety and risk management programs and the reasons why accidents and injuries occur. This workshop will define and detail the following safety program elements:

• Employee selection & onboarding
• Accident investigation & injury management
• Management practices
• Written policies & procedures
• Safety training & education
• Safety observations & audits
• OSHA compliance
• Measuring success & benchmarking

This workshop will provide participants with a better understanding of the reasons why accidents and injuries occur; why employees engage in unsafe behaviors and, most importantly, how to prevent work related injuries and illnesses. 

Industry leading safety programs succeed because they are supported by leaders who know the importance of these safety program elements. Attend and learn how you can become an even more effective leader while developing a strong culture of safety within your organization or company.
