Manage episode 443429218 series 2937891
“We’ve always done it that way” 😱
"It’s just common sense." 🥺
"We don’t have time for this." 😨
"It’ll be fine." 😡
"We’ve never had an accident before." 😭
Safety is our number one priority" - Is that really true? Or are we just paying lip service?
We've all heard it countless times, but are these safety platitudes actually helping us create a safer workplace? This week, on the Safety and Risk Success podcast, Christian Harris and safety mythologist Carsten Busch challenge the status quo and dive into the most frustrating phrases safety professionals encounter.
Get ready for a lively roundtable discussion where we tackle common safety clichés like "Hold the handrail," "We comply with all the regulations," and "What we’ve always done," explore the psychology behind them, and discover how to promote a more proactive and effective safety culture. With real-life examples, audience participation, and practical advice, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to move beyond the superficial and build a truly safety-conscious organisation.
Highlights:
- Safety Terrorism: Why “Hold the handrail” and “Reverse park” can be counterproductive and create a culture of overprotection.
- What We’ve Always Done: Understanding the comfort of familiarity and how to encourage growth beyond outdated practices.
- Compliance vs. Proactive Safety: The difference between ticking boxes and truly embedding safety into the organisation’s culture.
- Safety is Our Number One Priority: Unpacking the symbolic vs. substantial aspects of safety and how to avoid a superficial approach.
- Quantifying the Value of Safety: The challenge of measuring the impact of preventive measures and the importance of near misses.
