Proactive Occupational
Safety through
Targeted Dialogues

During our CPI surveys, we took the time to incorporate some feedback sessions to understand how we can assist segment leaders in raising safety awareness within cost centers. Feedback showed that handouts on key behaviors, routines, and self-care would help segment leaders inform their teams.

Our main goal with this initiative is to shift from reactive to a proactive behavior among our employees. Instead of just responding to problems, we want to predict potential risks and positively influence our employees´ safety awareness through sensitization and open discussions.

Through Hand Outs on various safety relevant topics, we are planning to add short safety briefings into our regular dialogues. This approach will make safety a regular part of our workday.

Consistent reminders and regular touchpoints ensure that employees and leaders continously monitor their own behavior. With short safety talks, we aim to update our employees´ safety knowledge without disrupting the operational process. For example, the standardization of pre-operational safety checks is an initiative in this direction.

A key part of our project is introducing a new anchor routine. During the dialogues, handout presenting relevant safety topics matching the specific work area will be showcased. 

This pool of topics will be available to all managers.
