Every successful safety program is built on a foundation of essential elements. One such element is Safety Leadership which can be defined as “the influence of a person’s words or actions on the safety decisions made by others.”  Human nature tempts us to make a job easier or faster by making unsafe choices. The consistent presence of positive safety leadership helps all workers make wise safety decisions.  It's important to note that safety leadership comes from everyone:  the newest employee, the experienced worker, the front line supervisor and even the plant manager.
