YOUR BUSINESS AUTHORITY
Springfield, MO
The first thing we want organizations to realize is that safety culture is already a substantial piece of your overall culture. You can’t separate the two. You can choose to acknowledge that fact and then pour in the time and resources needed to grow it, or you can choose to believe it’s a separate element altogether and watch your organization’s culture struggle.
The fact is, safety and culture are inherently intertwined.
If you need assistance in conducting an organizational assessment on the perception and practices of your safety program, reach out to us. We’d love to help.
