Unsafe behaviour is inevitable: why workers behave unsafely
Friday 13th September, 12:30 pm - webinar
Do you find yourself questioning why workers sometimes take risks, despite your best efforts to inform them of best practice? In this upcoming webinar organised by the IOSH Railway Group, “Unsafe behaviour is inevitable: why workers behave unsafely", Tended’s Head of Behavioural Science Jules Reed offers an insightful journey into the human mind and workplace dynamics that influence decision making. Drawing on her behavioural science background and expertise in psychology and sociology, Jules will offer a new perspective on workplace safety.
What you'll discover:
- The brain’s automatic shortcuts - how cognitive biases affect risk perception
- The influence of safety culture - how accepted standards affect common practice
- Why rules have a limited impact - how safety information does not always translate into practice
- Bridging the human error gap - how technology is being utilised to improve personal safety
Join Jules on Friday 13th September at 12:30 pm for an insightful session that bridges behavioural science with practical workplace safety.
