What is it?

We are passionate about enabling cultural and behavioural change with a focus on stakeholder engagement.  

Culture change is an expert behavioural safety resource which develops bespoke programmes specifically designed to align with your business ethos and objectives.

We work in partnership with Tribe, an expert behavioural consultancy practice, which implements health and safety culture change programmes. By improving your organisational culture and increasing staff engagement with your health and safety arrangements, you can make a positive difference. 

Who is it for?

Any organisation from any sector or size that wishes to develop and sustain a positive health and safety culture – whether from an initial stage or those looking to improve their existing culture. 

Why culture change is right for your organisation

Developing a positive and inclusive safety culture is proven to make your workplace a safer and more productive environment. Our clients have seen as much as a 30% reduction in accident rates in the first year, rising to 80% over five years. Our focus on employee (and other stakeholder) engagement helps you to build resilience within your safety culture in times of organisational change. 

Also:

  • Improved workplace standards and stakeholder wellbeing 
  • Lower staff turnover and increased staff morale 
  • Demonstration of commitment toward stakeholder wellbeing and social responsibility. 

How does it work?

We work in partnership with Tribe, an expert behavioural consultancy practice, which implements health and safety culture change programmes. By improving your organisational culture and increasing staff engagement with your health and safety arrangements, you can make a positive difference. 

We develop an approach that is tailored to the unique needs of your organisation. Our delivery structure typically involves: 

  • Working with you to determine suitable and realistic goals to improve your safety culture 
  • Assessing your current safety culture and using that information to develop the best approach to help you achieve your objectives 
  • Enabling you to deliver change through workshops, tools and technology 
  • Supporting you throughout the process and enhancing and refreshing the programme as your safety culture develops.

"A big factor within safety culture is responsibility. We tend to leave that out but you need to get people to accept their responsibility. Once you get that acceptance of responsibility, they will accept leadership. Our culture change programme has enhanced that ten-fold."

John Morgan Health and Safety Director, Kier Group
