Construction Leaders on Turning Safety into a Competitive Advantage
In UK construction, workplace injuries and work-related ill health lead to 2.2 million working days lost every year, costing the sector around £1.4 billion annually. In times of economic uncertainty, the challenge for construction isn’t whether to invest in safety – it’s how to make it a critical enabler of operational and financial performance. In this panel, EcoOnline’s VP of Global Solutions Consulting, Justin Ibbs, will moderate a discussion with senior safety professionals from leading construction organisations on how safety culture drives productivity, operational efficiency, and long-term growth.
The panel will discuss:
- Programmes they’re introducing to enhance safety culture for today’s workforce
- Focusing on leading indicators to unlock new aspects of safety effectiveness
- How connected safety solutions give a holistic view of operations and risk
- Practical routes to engage workers with safety initiatives
- The impact of safety and engagement on productivity and retention
- How they demonstrate the commercial value of safety to the wider business
