It's time to shift your perspective on safety in construction 📣 With Tamara Jonson

  • Summary

  • We all know that safety is a key operational part of any business. But would you say it also plays a key role in your company culture? So often, the blame falls upon subcontractors for workplace incidents. Rarely do organisations take a step back and ask, 'how did we fail?'.

    On my podcast, Garry's Shortlist, I am joined by Tamara Jonson - Group Head of Safety at Australia's largest privately-owned construction firm, Richard Crookes Construction. The construction firm is embarking on a transformative shift surrounding perceptions of safety and high potential incidents in the workplace.

    Tamara discusses how many organisations focus and report on injuries or incidents that result in direct harm. However, Richard Crookes is taking the effort to investigate workplace incidents and take them as seriously as if someone had been left permanently disabled or killed. 

    Join us as we discuss the leading construction firms' proactive safety strategies and top tips for someone looking for a career in safety. Tamara reminded me of a great quote 'hire the attitude, train the skills.' Spot on!
