Safety Council
“Safety is a full-time job. Don't make it a part-time practice.”
- Justin Hayes, Safety Manager, Benjamin Steel Co.
“We need to make personal safety a value in our corporate lives. Many organizations do see safety as a priority. Yet, as humans, we know that like life, priorities change with time. That’s why safety and health must become a personal and organizational VALUE. This needs to be a value that is believed in from the “top” down. Values, unlike priorities, do not change.”
- Kimberly Elliott
