We start the year with a 3 part series with Sondra Lavoie, CSP, ASP, CHST, discussing communication with the boots on the ground. Sondra offers her vast knowledge of experience and skill as a safety professional to share how to bridge the barrier of respect and engagement with people who are at the point of operation. Success in building a positive rapport includes developing the relationship and caring, something the “boots on the ground” can detect very readily. The rewards are great with shared safety engagement and resolution to challenges only they experience and can see. Check out this episode to learn what and how.
JSA – Matt Herron Part 2 || Client Side Chats
In part two of our five-part series with Matt Heron, MS, PE, CSP, CPE, Lead Safety Engineer at the Southwest Research Institute, we discuss the use of the JSA as an interactive tool for keeping safety in the forefront. The key in getting uptake on using the JSA is making it easily accessible and easy to use. Integrating the JSA into the work process makes it part of the job and ensures it does not remain static.
