Staying on the Same Page

When your employees are spread out across multiple departments, work shifts, facilities, cities, and even continents, how do you make sure they are all on the same page when it comes to safety?

If you’re an EHS professional who follows industry best practices, safety meetings are likely one of your most trusted and valuable tools for keeping everyone moving in the same direction and improving your organization’s environment, health, safety, and sustainability programs. Frequent safety meetings have been shown to directly reduce the number of severe incidents and injuries in the workplace. Moreover, conducting regular safety meetings is required by law in a number of jurisdictions throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

However, if you’re like many other EHS professionals, coordinating and managing your organization’s safety meetings is a daunting task, not to mention following-up on all of the important issues discussed and uncovered in the process. Just keeping up with your own emails and calendar is difficult enough, but add to it any number of formal safety committee meetings or informal toolbox talks, and your management challenges grow exponentially.

Meeting dates, times, minutes, names of attendees and their job functions, hazards addressed, roles assigned, and actions taken is just some of the information agencies like CCOSH, HSE, and regulators in 22 U.S. states require businesses both large and small to document and maintain.

Safety meetings are great for communicating and addressing workplace hazards with employees, and serve as the foundation for a strong safety culture – but let’s face it, they can be a major headache. But what’s the alternative? If your employees don’t have access to the most up-to-date safety information, let alone the opportunity to participate in workplace safety programs, then there’s a good chance the safety culture of your organization is going to suffer.
