An intensive program to foster safety leadership

amongst employees

This unique training package equips learners with safety leadership

competencies and behaviours; those are required to facilitate ownership of
safety at work place. These programs empower safety leaders to be valued
members of the organisation, who positively influences and pass on health
and safety expertise to those who are performing work. This shift from
being a safety manager to a safety coach at work place, requires skill &
knowledge that enables safety professionals to empower others to be a
part of the solution rather than being perceived as the primary problem.
This comprehensive program develops the core level of knowledge and
expertise required by leaders, who need to take accountability and
responsibility for healthy and safe thinking and behaviours at the
workplace.
