12 ways to promote a positive safety culture at workplace

 Good evening my fellow colleagues,

I'd like to start this series of blogs with some useful tips on how we can achieve workplace health and safety.

  • Conduct a thorough workplace risk assessment;
    • Thoroughly investigate all incidents and near misses, and examine the root cause;
    • Communicate all changes in equipment and work processes to workers;
    • Encourage workers to report health and safety concerns;
    • Respond promptly to all health and safety issues you become aware of;
    • Measure and support any changes required;
    • Implement positive changes in values and attitudes towards workplace health and safety;
    • Develop a safety leadership culture at all levels of the business and ensure all leaders of the business uphold the principles of a positive safety culture;
    • Make health and safety of primary importance when inducting new workers into the workplace, e.g. include the health and safety policy in induction material;
    • Make health and safety part of all workplace communications;
    • Install a safety noticeboard to clearly communicate the latest safety information; and
    • Promote and attend safety training sessions.
