As safety professionals, we can often do a better job of
communicating the business value of safety and viewing
safety as an integrated part of business strategy and
daily operations. More often than not, we disregard the
connection and incorrectly evaluate the ROI of safety.
Join Chris Ferguson and Adrian Bartha as they address
the key areas your business should focus on when
evaluating the value of safety.
