When supervisors view safety as the safety department’s responsibility, ownership fades and accountability weakens. The reality is that the most powerful influence on crew behavior isn’t a policy or a program — it’s the supervisor leading the work. The decisions supervisors make, and how they lead their crews, have the greatest impact on both safety and performance. For smaller companies without a dedicated safety manager or team, the supervisor’s role becomes even more critical – success depends on whether they lead safety because they believe in it, not just because someone is looking over their shoulder.
Please join us for this one-hour webinar as we examine the critical role supervisors play in guiding safe choices, managing performance, and shaping outcomes that protect employees, strengthen company culture, and drive better business results.
