Protecting Safety When Budget Cuts Threaten Your Programs
|
It’s a frightening statistic: 75% of Safety professionals recently surveyed are concerned that their safety budgets will be cut in 2009 – and almost 50% believe those cuts will be deep enough to put workers at increased risk.
That’s simply unacceptable to any serious Safety professional.
But what can you do about it? Can you really convince top management to NOT cut Safety expenditures? If you think you can, how do you do it? If you can’t, how do you make a case to protect the most critical pieces of your safety program? How do you ensure that saving money doesn’t come at the cost of worker safety?
This program, featuring safety expert Robert Ryan, President of Safety Metrics, will answer those questions and more. During this 60-minute presentation he’ll give you an action plan to help you quantify safety so you can make a financially sound argument to protect your budget. You’ll learn how to demonstrate in a meaningful way which programs can safely be trimmed and which must stay intact.
In today’s environment, every safety presentation, program or idea must be coupled with a financial metric and cost benefit. This audio conference/webinar program will show you how to achieve that critical goal.
