Safety Culture
Safety culture is the collection of the beliefs, perceptions and values that employees share in relation to risks within an organization, such as a workplace or community.A good safety culture can be promoted by senior management commitment to safety, realistic practices for handling hazards, continuous organisational learning, and care and concern for hazards shared across the workforce
Culture of Safety
This document discusses establishing a culture of safety in EMS. It defines a culture of safety as prioritizing worker and public safety at all levels of an organization. EMS personnel, patients, and community members are all at risk of harm. The six core elements of an EMS culture of safety are: 1) a just culture that categorizes incidents and focuses on prevention, 2) coordinated support and resources, 3) a national data system, 4) EMS education initiatives, 5) EMS safety standards, and 6) requirements for reporting and investigating incidents. Organizations should consider changes needed to develop a culture of safety, how mistakes are currently handled, and how a just culture approach could change incident handling.

The strategies encourage employee ownership of safety through committees, problem-solving teams, incident investigations, training involvement, audits, housekeeping, and rewards for safe conduct.
Establishing Effective Safety Committees May 19, 2016
In this day and age you have probably accepted the fact that you need to establish some sort of safety program into your facility. You have heard some horror stories about employee injuries or seen how much you are paying out on worker’s compensation each year. Maybe you have watched some webinars and maybe seen a presentation on regulatory agencies stepping up enforcement. So, you finally accepted the fact that it is time to buy into a safety program. That is the first of many hurdles to come.
Putting together a safety committee will be key and one of the first steps necessary for your safety program. The next question is, “Where do I begin?” Which will then lead into, “Do you want to just put out a posting requesting volunteers or require certain people to participate? Do you need managers or just employees? What are you going to talk about in these meetings? Should there be any extra responsibilities for members? How do we sustain this meeting and keep interest?”
Please join KPA consultant Zach Pucillo as he shares his recommendations for establishing and running an effective safety committee. He will share some of his best practices from his 9 years of experience in participating and leading safety committees.
Zach Pucillo has been a consultant in the environmental and safety field for the past 9 years.

5 Ways to Build Employee Trust for Less Turnover and Fewer Incidents
Over the past few months, we’ve seen employees quit in record numbers. While there are many reasons for “The Great Resignation”, a standout is employee trust. A study from Gallup suggests that only one in three employees strongly agree that they trust the leadership of their organization.
Employees want to trust the companies they work at and the people they work with. They want to feel comfortable coming to HR with their complaints and concerns. But building trust takes time, and effort. As organizations are planning their post-pandemic strategies, now is a perfect time to place an intentional emphasis on building trust.
