Can you identify the monsters that are terrorizing your organization?  What beasts are holding back not only your safety, but production and quality performance as well?
Surprisingly for most, the Monsters are quite common and really simple once you understand them.  What is troubling is the fact that all of us unknowingly keep the Monsters well fed and alive.
 In this thought provoking session,  we will identify four simple monsters that are terrorizing your safety performance on and off the job.   We’ll also look at some efficient technology you can deploy as you develop your team of Monster slayers.
Policies, procedures, engineering controls are all essential elements of a solid safety management system, but we will never achieve world class safety performance until we stop feeding those monsters.
