Overview/Description

When it comes to safety at work, there is no 'one size fits all' plan. Safety is about people and conditions – both can change and be unpredictable at times. That's why a safety professional is needed to identify hazards and recommend solutions to manage any on-site risks. In this course, you'll learn about the safety profession and what it takes to encourage others to be safe and build an authentic safety culture in your organization.
