Tim Davies argues that workplace safety isn't just a cost center but can boost profits when done right. The challenge: quantifying those benefits and convincing executives to invest before seeing the financial payoff.
People see health and safety as a cost, okay? But, but if you, if you do things the right way, it can have a massive improvement on your bottom line. But it's, it's difficult to, it's difficult to quantify it.
It is. And it is bridging that gap too, because while nobody wants anybody to have an injury or die in a work environment, also quite often they're really conscious of their bottom line and minimizing cost and spend. And that's often a delta that causes problems. So how you tie it together and communicate communicate it in a way that the exec team buy in from day one.
Mm-hmm.
It's one of the oldest challenges in business. It's a massive, it's a massive challenge.
