Construction Innovation's Construction Site Safety Culture Team won the Judges High Commendation on Friday 31 August at the Victorian Chapter Australian Institute of Project Management.
The Construction Site Safety Culture project research team, headed by John Holland Group Safety Manager Dean Cipolla identified safety management tasks critical to achieving safe outcomes in the workplace and the roles within the industry that need to undertake these tasks.
The project mapped each role against each task to the skill and behavioural competencies required to successfully undertake each task and drive a positive site safety culture. By returning these findings to industry, it is anticipated that construction organisations can then train, coach and motivate employees to hold the required attributes to drive a positive safety culture.
Congratulations to the team.
