Listen "Measurement that enables safety capacity"
Episode Synopsis
Presented by Kelvin Genn, CEO, Art of Work
What’s covered?
Safety is a function of work capacity, not the absence of the measurement of absence or counting of transactions. New measurement tools have been developed to provide a metric for Boards and Executives of organisations to understand the presence of safety capacity in their organisation by collecting and reporting on the state of operational capacity through enabling those that do the work.
These measures examine the extent of capacity building activities being undertaken in terms of reflecting on the investment the organisation has built up in the skills and capability of workers over and above the minimum competencies for their work. Capacity measures provide an index on the extent of resourcing for enablers of safety. Capacity measures are the high-water mark of the legislative obligations placed on officers to meet due diligence obligations that derive from workplace health and safety laws in jurisdictions such as Australia and New Zealand.
Safety Capacity is informed by an approach to health and safety that looks to build the health and safety capacity and resilience of an organisation, founded on engagement and trust with workers.
