Critical Control: Operationalise Critical Controls Through In-Field Interactions | Webinar | Sentis

The integrity and success of most critical risk management systems are often determined by the quality of safety leadership within the business. Not only do leaders need to ensure that the frontline workforce is adequately enabled to implement the appropriate critical controls at the task level, but they also need to support their workers through regular in-field reviews and verifications to ensure controls are present and effective. These infield interactions require leaders to have a mix of technical and interpersonal skills, to be able to coach the workforce to build critical control knowledge, as well as inviting open and collaborative discussions when gaps are identified, or improvement ideas are raised. Join Sentis Principal Consultant Dr Brett Solomon as he explores - • The role of the safety leadership within a critical risk management system; • Interpersonal communication strategies for an effective infield critical control verification process; • Understanding and responding to absent or ineffective controls; and, • Encouraging ongoing continuous improvement within the work planning and safety management system.

Plugging the holes in holistic safety

Presented by Angelina Badri, Founder and Director of Universal Safety Wellness

What’s covered?

Give people a better understanding of why people do what they do and discover what influences their behavior. More importantly, find out what leaders can help people strengthen how they think, feel and behave to improve organisational performance, especially safety.

Organizations continue to be challenged to find ways to improve safety performance, whether it’s the prevention of severe injuries (or worse), reducing injury rates or helping people deal with mental health issues. Puzzled by why their safety performance stagnates or in many cases deteriorates, organisations continue to persist, believing that having compliant systems in place is much of what is needed.

They do not recognize other aspects, holistic safety factors, that can help improve safety performance significantly, as well as organisational and human performance.

• So, where are the “holes” and how do organisations improve the use of holistic safety? By strengthening how people think, feel and behave.
• Applying holistic principles backed by brain science allows us to align what people do for safety with human biology. In other words, when people are personally aware of their “brain mode” and know how to deal with it, they maximize their ability to be situationally aware.

Safety vs Wellbeing Programs – How to Boost Employee Engagement

Presented by Greg Stark, Founder and Director of Better Being

What’s covered?

According to Maslow, there are four fundamental foundations that we must achieve before realising our potential: physiological needs, safety needs, love and belonging, and esteem. Often organisations skip straight to ‘safety’ to address employee wellbeing, however physiological needs form the basis of our health. Sleep, mindset, nutrition, and movement must be considered.

In this webinar, the Director of Better Being, Greg Stark, will explore these foundations and help you identify best practice for your business. 

• Understanding how Maslow’s hierarchy of needs fits into the employee experience 
• Steps to determine what wellbeing programs to implement 
• Strategies to support the physiological wellbeing of employees

The Power of Deep Listening

What difference would it make if Safety leaders and professionals changed the way they
listened?

Did you know that …..

1. Most of us have an 8 second attention span (BTW our attention span is 1% lower
   than a gold fish!)
2. 85% of what we learn is from listening
3. 75% of the time we are distracted or pre-occupied
4. One hour after listening we recall 20% of what we heard
5. The average person listens at 25% efficiency

(Source: Tara Brach podcast episode 31 March 2023)

Listening is such an underrated skill. When we are at school we are taught to read and write but not actually how to listen.

In this interactive session you will experience what it is like to truly be listened to and the impact it has on you. Listening as a Safety Leader and Professional is one of the most critical and crucial skills you can demonstrate if you are to do your job well. People will more likely trust you and open up and be vulnerable around what is really happening – particularly around safety.

Come along to this session to practice deep listening and to hear some simple tips on how you can be even better listener to improve your effectiveness in your role and the
relationships you have inside and outside of work.

Our top 5 tips for risk assessments

Presented by Mark Alston

What’s covered?

Organisations often struggle to achieve meaningful outcomes from risk assessment workshops. In this webinar, Mark Alston shares five practical tips for improving risk assessment workshop outcomes and delivering controls that reduce risk.

• Change the focus of risk assessments: Rather than simply justifying a decision that has already been made, use risk assessments to identify uncertainty and unknowns.
• Include the discovery of normal work: In addition to identifying potential risks, it’s important to understand the context of work and the risks that come with it.
• Develop risk scenarios that focus on the credible.
• Push the boundaries of controls.
• Ditch the Excel spreadsheets and other risk assessment tools.
