Professional Experience
Lloyd has been involved in safety for more than 25 years and holds a Master of Health Science, majoring in Occupational Health and Safety. Furthermore, Lloyd has been fortunate to travel the world and meet many remarkable safety professionals. It was one of these safety professionals who instilled the importance of not making safety a priority.
Why you may ask? Because a priority is something that changes, driven by outside influences, pressures or demands.
A value is a profoundly owned belief, which a person holds beyond compromise. For a culture of safety to cultivate within an organisation, safety should be treated as a value that is never negotiated.
To achieve safety goals within an organisation, every team member, crew leader, supervisor, site manager, operational manager and company director should view working safely as a personal value like honesty, accountability, and integrity.
Contact LSC to learn how your organisation can make safety a value.
