Safety of Work Survey

Presented by Dr David Provan (Forge Works)

What’s covered? 

Last month Forge Works released the Safety of Work Survey as part of a diagnostic process for improving the safety of work. This webinar will discuss how this can be used as a replacement for existing safety climate and safety culture perception surveys. This evidenced based approach takes the contemporary safety theories of High Reliability Organisations (HRO), Resilience Engineering, Safety II, Safety Differently and Human and Organisational Performance and operationalises it in a way for organisations to understand their capacity for managing the safety of work.

In addition the survey also understands how your organisation believes safety should be managed. This is critical insight for any improvement and change process. Come along to understand the science and the practice of the latest safety thinking and research and how you can apply it in your organisation.

SHAPED Supervision: Redefining front line safety leadership

Presented by David Provan and Ralph Shreeve (Forgeworks)

What’s covered? 

The primary purpose of a modern supervisor working in hazardous operations is to organise, manage, support and develop the team’s ability to work safely.  In order to effectively deliver on that primary purpose, we believe that the key actions of safe supervision are SHAPED i.e.,

• • Seeking differing opinions.
  • Hunting for hazards.
  • Aligning goals and roles.
  • Planning collaboratively.
  • Executing mindfully.
  • Developing individual and team capabilities.

These actions are not the exclusive domain of the supervisor. As the team must be actively engaged in the process, safe supervision should not be seen as something that is done to the team, but rather as a dynamic element of teamwork. The supervisor is accountable for the quality of supervision but every member of the team has a shared responsibility.

Just as good leadership develops, and is in turn dependent upon, good follow-ship, safe supervision creates and is in turn dependent upon good teamwork.  Optimising each of the elements of SHAPED supervision requires every member of the team to be fully engaged, not just with the supervisor and other team members, but also with the action itself.

This webinar is focused on:

• • Exploring a new definition of supervision and understanding the elements of ‘SHAPED’ supervision.
  • Exploring ‘safe supervision’ as both a leadership role and a set of activities that the whole team engage with using the “Know, Say, Do” framework.
  • Exploring how diversity and inclusion can enhance hazard hunts and discussions and planning. 
  • Understanding how to harness the positive effects and minimise the potential negatives of diversity and collaboration.

 

This knowledge will develop your understanding of how to create a safe system of work and supervision where the team is actively engaged in looking out for themselves and each other.

Key takeaways:

• • MUE risk analysis vs. standard Safe Work Method Statement (SWMS)
  • Bowtie and different risk analysis options
  • Different critical control types and pitfalls

Making Psychosocial Risk Management a Clear and Valuable Process in Your Organisation

Presented by Dr Tessa Bailey (Principal Consultant, The Opus Centre)

What’s covered? 

Understanding your responsibilities as an employer to protect worker health starts with understanding the factors in your organisation that have the potential to cause harm. Automation of routine tasks, technological advancements, and ongoing organisational change have transformed the nature of work. Performing complex and cognitively demanding tasks now represents the greatest percent of skill required by Australian employees.

This webinar will help you identify psychosocial factors that have the potential to cause harm to worker health in your organisation. You will learn how to manage the risk to reduce the potential for these hazards to occur, and if they do occur how to act appropriately to minimise the likelihood of harm.

There are many benefits to implementing evidence based systems for creating a psychologically safe and healthy work environment. This includes better individual worker wellbeing and organisational productivity outcomes, while also achieving your due diligence to provide a safe working environment.

CCM Series - 1: Material Unwanted Events (MUE): How to Identify and Map What’s Important

What’s an underwater diver’s biggest threat – Sharks or Clown Fish?

This webinar will provide a Critical Control Management (CCM) introduction and Material Unwanted Events (MUE) with high potential consequences. A practical case study will also be provided on mapping major hazards.

Key takeaways:

• • Critical Risk Management vs Critical Control Management?
  • International Council of Mining and Metals (ICCM) guidance on CCM and leading practices
  • Risk context and mapping Material Unwanted Events (MUE)

Coaching & Mentoring: What is the Difference?

Presented by Debra Burlington (Director, Enhance Solutions)

What’s covered? 

During this session Debra will provide some insights into the differences between coaching and mentoring. As a qualified coach and the Chairperson of the Australian Institute of Health and Safety’s (AIHS) Mentoring Program, she has been exploring these differences for some time. Both are valid, and done well, both add a great deal of value to the development of those people we are influencing in the work place.

A key skill is being able to bring awareness to what kind of conversation is best in which situation. Debra will offer some hints and tips as to what to listen for that will indicate the type of conversation required in a given situation.

Key Factors for Successful Mould Remediation

Presented by Presented by Michael Taylor, Ian Crew and Cedric Cheong (Greencap)

What’s covered? 

Water damage and subsequent mould growth can have lasting impacts to not only the health of occupants but also on the building structure itself, and these risks are amplified when corrective actions are delayed or if the source of the problem remains undiscovered for months or longer.

It is unfortunately too common for mould remediation projects to run over time or expand to include costly additional site attendances and further works. Our panel of Indoor Environmental Professionals (IEP) will draw from decades of industry experience to identify the key factors common to successful remediation projects, and outline how an IEP can assist in ensuring remediation is successful.

The discussion will cover the entire project lifecycle, including

• • Initial investigations and scoping
  • Industry best practice remediation processes – what works and what doesn’t
  • How containment saves money and reduces health impacts
  • The health and legal ramifications of mould remediation – making sure projects don’t come back to haunt you.

Top 4 Reasons for Poor Contractor and Supplier Performance

Presented by Mark Wright (Managing Director, Health & Safety Index) & Colin Williams (Director, heyProcurement)

What’s covered? 

This webinar provides an economic outlook of labour and materials, will provide Health and Safety Index benchmark results, factors impacting on poor contractor and supplier performance.

Often organisations take a one-size-fits-all approach to managing risks when procuring goods and services. This often leads to complexities, clutter, non-compliance, and ineffective cultures. Requirements vary based on supplier maturity, procurement categories, economic trends and activities performed.

We will explore current procurement trends impacting goods and services, including commercial risks, health and safety practices and behaviours.

Key takeaways:

• • Economic outlook and procurement risks
  • Methods to engage contractors and suppliers
  • Segmenting contractors and suppliers
  • Measuring performance
  • Applying risk-based controls and improvement plans.
