What does OSHA consider a “competent person”? In Episode 15, the Safety+Health team talks about the requirements. Also: Jim Spigener, chief client officer at DEKRA, helps break down “the ROI of safety.”
“For any organization to consider itself world class in safety, it must first want to have employees who truly believe leaders are working for them, not against them,” says Rajni Walia of DEKRA.
In Episode 13, the Safety+Health team discusses situational awareness for workers and how it can be impacted on the job. The team also welcomes safety leadership expert Don Groover from DEKRA, who talks about leadership during – and after – the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Learning organizations don’t need to experience a catastrophe to understand how to prevent one from happening,” says Sarah Eck of DEKRA North America.
“Telling people to stop making errors or leadership applying discipline won’t improve performance error,” says Matt Hargrove of DEKRA Organizational Safety and Reliability.
Instead of asking, “Can it happen here?” ask, “How can it happen here?” says Mike Snyder, managing director for DEKRA North America’s process safety practice.
Paul Angelo, principal consultant at DEKRA, says the recent increase in virtual interaction is an opportunity for leaders “to revisit the key concepts of engagement.”
