This 6-day course will bring together the role of first-line supervisor with the responsibility of safety.
Through opportunities to apply knowledge, skills and abilities of leadership as they are applied to the culture of safety, students will:
- Critique the current culture of safety.
- Evaluate the impacts of human dynamics.
- Apply a risk management plan.
Using an identified safety issue for their agency, each student will develop a safety culture improvement plan to implement in their agency.
This course provides information using instructor-facilitated discussion, practical activities and an individual Safety Culture Improvement Plan project to convey instructional points.
