Health and Safety in Construction.
No matter what trade or sector of the construction industry your company is a part of, Health and Safety plays a significant role in both the work you perform and your ability to work for general contractors.
Fore instance, health and Safety can be viewed as an inconvenience to some tradespeople and business owners, seen as a waste of time and money, and unnecessary… Until it’s not!
However, if you’ve ever been unfortunately involved in a severe Health and Safety incident, or worse still, a fatality, you understand the importance of Health and Safety in the working environment, especially in construction.
Above all, most people enjoy safe working environments, outfitted with all of the necessary regulation/standards approved features. Those luxuries aren’t available on the jobsite because you haven’t built them yet!
Believing is seeing.
This episode is not about all the visible, tangible, and measurable Health and Safety processes and procedures. You already know most of those.
This episode discusses the most important factor influencing your people and their decision to pay attention to those visible procedures and protocols. It relates to something we feel, not something we see.
How we act, our standards, behaviors, and attitudes are heavily affected by our environment, and our environment is, in turn, influenced by the culture of that environment.
Culture might sound a bit of a heavy word and something that we are not in control of or responsible for, but we are. Understanding that you set the tone, the standards, and the attitude for your own company culture is very important.
Conclusion
We will dig into how you set that tone and raise those standards in this episode. Understanding and awareness are the first steps towards change.
Enjoy.
Program vs. Podcast?
The Construction MPa Program is an entirely different beast than the Construction MPa Podcast. However, it was ultimately built with the same end goal in mind, too:
A) Help small business owners strengthen their businesses themselves via a step-by-step process.
B) To provide a home for small business owners to openly discuss the challenges they face in a sales and bullshit-free environment.
