"Managing for Outstanding Safety" Background This workshop utilizes a model of safety management that was
developed from detailed observation of organizations with consistent (year-over-year) outstanding safety performance. Many models of safety management are descriptive—this framework identifies key 'drivers' and their
impacts upon the end-result of safety performance. In this workshop, the specifics of key factors are illustrated, and participants are involved in exploration of how the framework might be applied in their own
workplace.  Adapted from:-
