Walking & Working Surfaces - From Behavioural Insights To Action, with Daryl Wake
Manage episode 508505786 series 2937891
Why do slips, trips and falls stubbornly remain the number one cause of workplace accidents, even in high-risk industries that are otherwise strong on safety? The answer lies in both human behaviour and practical action, and that’s exactly what Daryl Wake of Dekra and I explore together.
Daryl brings fresh behavioural data gathered across industries, showing how and why people really slip, trip and fall, and the critical role of leadership and culture. I then take the baton to share a roadmap of proven, practical steps you can implement immediately to cut incidents, defend claims, and build a safer, stronger organisation.
Highlights include:
- Behavioural safety insights: why a few key habits cause most accidents
- Data in action: patterns behind 7,500+ workplace observations
- Leadership’s role: culture, influence and frontline engagement
- Practical tools: how to prevent slips and trips in real-world settings
- The five mistakes organisations make: and how to avoid them
- Trips vs slips: why they’re different and need different solutions
- Measuring risk: the science of slip testing and pendulum values
- Free resources: download my book Prevent Slip Accidents and take the slip risk scorecard self-assessment
