Listen Later

“Safety culture” is top priority for every safety manager these days, but how to shape a culture is a continual challenge.

On today’s EHS on Tap, we discuss senior management’s role in creating a solid safety culture with Adam Levesque, a safety management consultant at MEMIC, a Workers Compensation Specialty Insurer.
