Answers on a postcard pleaseDoes anybody have data and case studies to share about the impact of accidents that happen outside work on their employees?
If you do have something you could share, Karen would be keen to connect with you to see if there's opportunities we can all learn from your experiences.
We believe we have a really positive health and safety culture at my work, one which extends way beyond work and into our everyday lives. I often hear anecdotes of how employees have changed their behaviours and attitudes outside of work towards H&S because of our culture. Sometimes people talk about how they have intervened with complete strangers where they think there is a risk, sometimes they share a near miss or accident they have had to help raise awareness. I can't help but think there is something in these conversations we could tap into, something we could analyse to find out what 'we' are doing right, or what we are doing wrong.
If we could figure that out, we could better influence our home life, our leisure activities, hobbies, vulnerable groups etc.
What do you think? Do you already study out-of-work near misses, accidents and/or the impact to home life?
