WHAT WILL MANAGING SAFELY
DELIVER FOR YOUR BUSINESS?
The most successful organisations recognise
that a focus on the safety and wellbeing of
their people has a direct and measurable
impact on business performance.
They’ll learn about the ‘why’ as well as
the ‘how’. Why should we look out for our
colleagues? Why should we continue to
innovate? How can I make a difference?
Organisations that manage on-going risk
more effectively can focus on the more
significant risks, meaning they can become
more productive.
You’ll benefit from:
• greater productivity – stronger focus on
significant risks means fewer days lost
through sickness and accidents
• increased efficiency – it is business focused
and practical in its approach with no
unnecessary ‘frills’. Your managers will learn
techniques to drive more efficient working
• reduced costs – lowered recruitment costs
and greater retention levels and a reduction
in insurance premiums and legal costs
• reputational advantage – your customers,
suppliers and stakeholders will recognise
that you are an innovative organisation
that makes sound ethical choices. People
will want to do business with you.
• a safer workplace – fewer accidents and
lower levels of sickness mean a happier
workforce. And happy staff will deliver
more for your business.
