Safety Committee Leadership Workshops

Because safety committees can be a powerful ally to safety departments, these workshops build the leadership skills of committee members. They become energized as a group to promote safety vision and principles, identify safe work practices, and help co-workers get involved with safety initiatives. No one achieves this quite as well as Hile Group.

This course helps safety and operations leaders, representatives from the field or front line, risk managers safety vendors who want to better serve their customers, and internal performance consultants and/or HR training professionals.

Purpose

Energize safety committees and safety-minded individuals in order to support company-wide initiatives that change safety culture and improve significantly on operational practices. This course energizes participants with a renewed sense of safety responsibility.
