Actors may be required to examine their company’s safety culture: following a serious accident or series of accidents; when demographic changes occur (retirements, massive staffing changes); following a significant technological or organisational change; under pressure from regulatory authorities, etc.
Discussions with our members and interventions in the field have led us to the following conclusion: we need to take a new look at our risk management strategies! We need to focus on the most important risks: serious, fatal and major technological accidents.
Safety culture is a set of ways of doing and thinking that is widely shared by the employees of an organisation in the context of managing the most significant risks associated with its activities.
