The safety space is made of everyday people who are real-life heroes, committed to creating a safe environment and engaging safety culture within their companies. Their priority is to ensure each and everyone of their employees gets to return home after a day’s work unharmed: they are unsung heroes.In fact, you never hear about them when they do their jobs right! We want to celebrate these everyday people and inspire others in that space to look at things differently, improve their safety management plans and overall learn as a collective; making “Safety” a cornerstone of every company’s culture. So let’s celebrate those safety leaders who stand on the frontline and the emotional/human implications of working in the safety space.
