September safety topics Absolutely! And it has been great for encouraging conversation about certain topics, especially those that become "old news" and for helping prevent complacency creeping in, identifying new hazards that may now exist with changes since (whatever the topic is) first arose - example forklift safety for both operators and for pedestrians, new challenges arise with electrics, awareness of how these are controlled etc - new equipment changing over head hazards etc.
I do a monthly H&S topic and a monthly Wellness topic. They don't need to be long but identifying the current issues and raising awareness and conversation.
Carried out during monthly team H&S meetings to cover the majority but all have access if they aren't on shift to attend the meeting. All sign off to say they have viewed them.
Michael, "The unicorn is finding someone willing to talk about mental health" - we started with external speakers - Mike King, Paul Rangiwahia, ex-staff that have had major injuries that have impacted their lives (not necessarily relating to work), there are plenty out there willing to talk about their experiences, it gets easier and buy in comes, for most... eventually.
