This article was created in partnership with Alcumus SafeContractor
In today's competitive landscape, aligning safety initiatives with broader business objectives is not just good practice it's a strategic necessity. But effectively communicating to the powers-that-be the interrelationship between the two is a well-known stumbling block for safety leaders.
“Data shows that when Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) practices are seamlessly integrated into the business strategy, they significantly contribute to organizational success,” says Lorena Espin, Account Manager at Alcumus SafeContractor. “Yet, demonstrating the tangible return on safety investments to C-suite executives is often a challenge.”
“The C-suite often prioritize initiatives with clear, measurable impacts on the bottom line,” Espin continues. She, along with Robyn Asher, Technical Standards Manager at Alcumus SafeContractor, will be hosting the upcoming webinar, How to demonstrate the return on safety to C-level executives.
“As the name suggests, we will provide tips on measuring and quantifying the impact of health and safety investments, so you are able to communicate their value in business terms,” says Espin.
Meanwhile, Robyn Asher, who has over 30 years of expertise in health and safety and holds the designation of Canadian Registered Safety Professional (CRSP), is well-versed in collaborating with stakeholders to deliver superior contractor management and supply chain solutions. "From a technical perspective, the challenge often lies in ensuring that safety data and performance metrics are accurate and compelling enough to resonate with senior leadership," says Asher.
Bringing their collective expertise to the webinar, both hosts aim to provide attendees with the tools needed to present H&S findings in a way that resonates with executives.
“We want to share insights that help you effectively convey the value of these initiatives,” says Espin. “Because that’s how we ensure safety remains a priority in your organization.”
From understanding the interconnection between business and OHS functions, to tracking long-term OHS business value metrics, and communicating these to senior leaders – this webinar will give you the strategies to enhance your influence and drive safety success in your organization.
