Focusing on the Personal Side of Safety
Mar 16th, 2008 by safetyculture
We are going to do something a little different today. This podcast also includes a recently recorded conversation that took place between Terry Mathis (the Founder and CEO of ProAct Safety) and myself.
This topic focuses on the need for communication in safety to be much more personal. Ask yourself this: Are your employees looking forward to your next safety meeting and do they all line up afterwards to personally thank you for your message?
If your employees or your fellow workers go home at the end of their shift and discuss their day with their family members or their friends, how many of those conversations would be focused on their excitement about being involved in safety? Is what you are sharing about in safety, personal and sticky enough to make a positive impact in their home life? Don Swartz said it best: “No one cares how much you know unless they know how much you care.”
If you have a story you would like to share with us and if you would like for it to be included in a future podcast, the email address can be found at the very end of the recording.
