In this week’s episode, Mousa sat down with Ben Legg, an HSEQ expert with nearly 30 years of experience in construction and support services from the UK to the Middle East. He shared how he challenges the traditional safety paradigms, advocating for leaders to engage in real conversations with the workforce to bridge the gap between policy and practice. Throughout the discussion, Ben shared the lessons he’s learned about creating impactful safety cultures by empowering frontline workers and moving away from top-down, compliance-only approaches to HSE.

Tune in to get Ben’s perspective on the importance of building trust and curiosity, asking the right questions, and leveraging technology that reduces friction rather than creating digital clutter from safety training and procedure material. Explore the critical role of leaders and the need for them to have a firsthand understanding of the dangers their frontline workers face to ensure they can address those hazards head-on and provide a safer working environment faster and more effectively.

Listen to Ben’s take on safety leadership and engaging your team.
