The roar of heavy earthmoving machinery, the shouts of workers at height, the flash of welding arcs, the vast expanse of an open mine – these are the hallmarks of high-risk industries. In these dynamic environments, where even the most mundane task can carry hidden dangers, creating a culture of safety is paramount. How do we move beyond checklists and procedures to effectively embed safety in the hearts and minds of workers? The answer lies in cultural assessments – powerful tools for understanding risk propensities and driving behavioural change, at every level of the organisation.
