Breaking the Bad News: How to Effectively Deliver Health and Safety Feedback

Picture this: you walk through a site, completing your intended tasks and observing employee activities. Suddenly, you see one employee completing an activity that puts them at risk for an injury, possibly a serious or fatal injury.

So what do you do? The incident might be outside the scope of your current work, or in a department you haven't interacted with. But you realize you cannot, in good conscience, simply ignore the problem.

This is a tricky dilemma, but if you're faced with a situation like this, take a deep breath and gather your thoughts. Then try to keep in mind these recommendations from some our very own Antea Group health and safety professionals over on the Antea Group blog.
