Training for BBS and safety have not advanced significantly over the past several decades, but the world we live in and our workforce have. Up until recently, training options have been limited to classroom sessions and long computer modules that check the box but often don’t do much to improve results.

Enter microlearning, a relatively new concept that supports today’s work environment and prepares your workforce for future success. On the scenes since 2012, microlearning helps employees better remember critical safety information and change their behavior to actually move the needle on the safety metrics that matter most to your business.

In this webinar, we’ll share real-world examples of organizations that have been leveraging microlearning as a critical component of their safety excellence strategy and behavior-based safety programs to change behavior, drive down safety incidents, and instill a safety culture. We will examine what you need to have in place to be successful with microlearning and how it can support you in your efforts to achieve safety excellence.

Specifically, you will learn:

• What microlearning is (and isn’t)
• What you need to have in place to set up your organization for success
• How microlearning can impact each phase of BBS
• 3 examples of companies that are using microlearning and getting results

Every company’s supply chain is critical to maintain production and ultimately the success of the company. Companies that fail to work with their vendors, suppliers and contractors (supply chain) to identify, detect, monitor and mitigate their safety and health issues, risk the real potential of interruption of the supply chain’s ability to provide the contracted services or goods. The result is the loss of business and profitability for the company as a result of the company’s inability to meet the demands and requirements of their clients because of the supply chain default.

This program will examine how companies can work with their supply chain to identify, detect, monitor and mitigate safety and health risks which could cause disruption of services and products to the company. The program will also discuss how to focus on supplier risk management in order to collect, analyze and manage the safety and health supply chain. Also, there will be an examination of the supplier performance information to identify red flags within each vendor, supplier and contractor. Finally, the program will discuss how focusing on these issues will lower our supply chain risk while improving productivity and profitability of the company.

Learning Objectives:

• Understanding how your company’s supply chain impacts its ability to meet your client’s needs;
• How to gather the data and information from your supply chain in order to identify potential safety and health risks;
• How to help your supply chain members understand how failure to identify and mitigate safety and health risk will impact the continued success of their companies and;
• How to assist your supply chain member in developing the policies and procedures to address identified risks and follow-up to ensure the identified risks have been addressed.

Digital Transformation has had a profound impact on how businesses operate, the way people work, and the trend continues to accelerate. The potential for digital innovation to improve safety and operational performance is great. Technologies such as sensor-equipped wearables, digital beacons, and augmented reality provide real-time interaction for workers with the work environment and safety/risk management system processes and procedures. But merely applying technology is not inherently useful. The real value is the interaction of technology with the total organizational system and the people and processes comprising it.

During this webcast, LNS Research will explain how safety and operations leaders can use digital innovations to enable the connected worker, improve safety, and mitigate risk.

      What you will learn:

• Impact of Digital Transformation on the workplace, and why it’s an opportunity for safety and health leaders
• How to engage the workforce to reduce risk using the EHS 4.0 framework
• What are the technology enablers that leading companies use today
• Real-world connected worker use cases to improve safety
• Recommendations to facilitate low risk, high-value digital innovation projects

      Who should attend:

• VP/director of EHS
• Safety and health leaders
• Compliance leaders
• Risk leaders
• Operations leaders

Employee safety must come first – for the health of both workers and the bottom line. Safe employees are more likely to trust management and be engaged in their work and willing to identify and solve problems. Changed safety processes and changed employee mindsets lead to significant quantitative benefits from increased production performances to reduced worker compensation costs and health premiums.

In this webinar, we’ll use real world examples to outline why organizations must address people and culture long before applying new tools. We will examine systematic approaches to safety excellence that focus on the human element.

Key Takeaways:

• How to win the hearts and minds of those you lead
• How small wins can improve overall morale and lead associates to success
• How organizations can align plant operations to the overall strategic goals of the company
• Achieving individual and Organizational Change

One of the challenges that continues to be controversial and has sparked numerous debates within organizations is proper application of LOTO. Varying interpretations and understanding of the standards places companies in a difficult and many times a costly position.

Our goal of this webinar is not intended to teach LOTO or how to write and implement LOTO procedures, but rather look at when to use LOTO versus when to use Machine Guarding for each task. Allow Schmersal to provide some insight as to the differences between the two methods and why to use LOTO on some tasks and machine guarding on other tasks. One does not replace the other, they work in conjunction to maintain effective machine safeguarding.

In this webinar, you will learn how to:

• Know that LOTO and machine guarding work in conjunction with one another and is not a replacement for each other.
• Develop a task based analysis to determine tasks fall under LOTO or Machine Guarding.
• Determine and justify the definition of normal, routine, repetitive tasks or minor servicing.
