Strong evidence can drive better safety decisions. However, the methods used to produce, report, and apply evidence in the field of OSH are often fragmented.
This session brings together insights from Lloyd’s Register Foundation and IOSH to examine the current OSH evidence ecosystem.  The panel will look at the value of existing reporting frameworks, and how practitioners use evidence to inform real-world safety decisions.
Join this conversation on how stronger collaboration between research, funders and the profession can build a more effective evidence base for safer work.
