Three New Safety Measures – What’s in Your Mind Matters
2025-10-16 10:00 - 11:30 (America/Los_Angeles)
Safety is defined as a state in which hazards and conditions leading to physical, psychological, or material harm are controlled to preserve the health and well-being of individuals and the community.
In construction, when we think about safety, we usually think about physical safety – keeping workers safe from accidents and injuries.
But there is much more to safety. Safety is more than a physical thing – it is also a “head thing.”
In this webinar, you will learn:

How your brain has so much to do with project safety.
3 safety brain “hacks” backed by science, which can improve project safety and productivity by over 20%.
Specific tips and tools you can start using today to improve your overall project safety and productivity.

When you stop looking at only the physical risks your employees face on your projects, and start looking at the brain-created risks, you will be able to break through to a whole new level of project safety.
>> This is an excellent seminar for leaders, managers, and teams at all levels in all work settings.
