Ship Shape – Safety, Harmony, Integrity and Participation
The Evolution of Safety
The importance of safety has never been in question, but the approach we see is often too impersonal and standardized. In our experience each company responds differently to safety and requires a custom approach. Ship Shape Consulting is about understanding site specific culture along with organizational goals, tailoring each project to deliver the best results. Safety Management is not a one size fits all blanket that covers all companies equally; it has to be dynamic and evolve to ensure the program is adopted through all levels of an organization and delivers on business objectives. The route to a “Zero Harm” target is just as important as the target. We are going to guide you to a “Zero Harm” target but together we will enjoy the steps it takes to get there.
“Safety is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.”
– William A Foster
