Webinar: BORING: it could be life or death but workers tune out to health and safety info
This webinar will provide considerations to selecting and engaging contractors
What’s covered?
Presented by Dr Kelly Jaunzems, Researcher and Lecturer, Edith Cowan University
An Edith Cowan University (ECU) study has confirmed what many workers have long lamented: health and safety information, while vital, often fails to engage employees.
Dr Kelly Jaunzems’ study investigated occupational safety and health (OSH) information in the workplace and whether it was read, understood, taken on board, internalised and enacted.
The study found most companies use email to convey OSH information, but it is not the most effective method or preferred by employees, and social media’s potential remains virtually untapped.
Kelly will discuss
- How to tailor OSH Communication to reflect urgency, amount and type
- How other industries use social media platforms for their advantage
- How to create and engage with meaningful two-way conversations
