Safety improvement through employee buy-in.
Most companies don’t have faulty safety procedures. They have a lack of buy-in to those procedures from employees.

Improving safety performance isn't done through more enforcement of rules and procedures. It's done by getting more employees to buy-in to the safety program.
But that takes a different approach and a plan.
