Innovation Can Transform Safety Culture
A company culture that encourages employee ideas, feedback, and engagement in implementing solutions provides a good foundation for innovative change. Company leaders must build a culture open to innovation in order for buy-in to occur. A McKinsey survey found that when leaders initiated innovative digital transformations but failed to engage line managers and frontline employees, only 3% reported success. Safety innovation specifically requires buy-in from leadership to frontline workers, who won’t engage in new safety tools and processes if they don’t believe it will result in true change.
This means company leaders have to be ready to support not only the digital innovation but also the changes needed to create a safety culture that engages and gives all workers a voice
