Safety culture

Anotace

Safety culture is becoming the next level of safety management for many companies. Companies are beginning to realize that due to developments and changes in security, it is necessary to develop not only the technical and organizational aspects of security but to focus much more on the behaviour of employees and their awareness of security. Building a high safety culture brings with it many positive effects in other areas of company development. Therefore, it is necessary for HSE professionals to have sufficient knowledge in the field and, in particular, to acquire the skills necessary for continuous improvement in the field of safety culture. This is a complex of mainly soft skills in the field of influencing human behaviour, psychology, habits and leadership, which they should acquire in teaching.
