Current Speaking Topics

Complacency: The Silent Killer This session will show you that even when people are compliant with safety procedures, aware of hazards and know PPE requirements, injuries still occur. Learn how to efficiently minimize the effects of complacency not only in your workplace but also at home and on the road.
Unlocking the Code to Human Error Traditional safety programs focus on minimizing the consequences of injury-causing errors. But everyday injuries like slips, trips and falls, and strains and sprains still occur. Wouldn’t it be more effective to focus on preventing the injury-causing error in the first place? Unlock the code to human error by changing the way you think about safety.
The 3rd Dimension of Risk Assessment Traditional risk assessments use the probability and severity of a potential injury to determine the overall level of risk. But predicting the probability of occurrence is difficult because risk is constantly shifting due to factors that aren’t captured in a traditional risk assessment. This session will discuss the third dimension—and how to consider it when assessing workplace risks.

 

Defenseless Moments: A Different Perspective on Serious Injury

This book is based on a series of 12 short articles that were published in safety magazines all over the world. These articles–now chapters–were written and designed to provide a number of different perspectives–or paradigm shifts–in terms of how most people think about industrial safety, and how most people think about accidental injury causation in general. Perhaps the most serious injuries and unintentional fatalities, whether they occur at work, on the road or in the home/community.
