In the Nov/Dec edition of Safeguard we are asking for feedback on three questions arising from material published in the magazine. The questions follow. You can respond to one or more questions in public here on the Forum, or privately here via a Survey Monkey form. An edited selection of responses will be published in the Jan/Feb edition, but with no names attached. One random person will receive a prize!
Q1: Richard Wagstaff says genuine worker engagement is much more than inviting workers to give feedback on a proposal – it requires training workers so they can define issues themselves and then work out solutions. How close does your organisation come to this?
Q2: Mary Deacon says the game-changer at Bell Canada was making mental health training mandatory for all people leaders, because it gave them confidence and competence in spotting warning signs, having difficult conversations, and supporting people. How does this gel with your own experience?
Q3: Derek Miller describes the awkward ethical dilemma than can face an occupational hygienist when a client expects them to work in a certain way. What is the toughest ethical dilemma you have faced in H&S at work?
