E52: Some 2020 Foresight into Workplace Safety

The EHS profession is constantly evolving and these ongoing shifts present both challenges and opportunities. We've all heard that hindsight is 20/20, but today we're looking to provide our listeners with some foresight into what to expect on the safety front as we progress through the year 2020. With that goal in mind, we're talking with a veteran safety professional who can guide us through a little bit of what the future may bring, from the need to develop new professional skills to the influence of technology on safety. Joining us today on EHS on Tap is Terry L. Mathis, the founder and CEO of ProAct Safety, an international safety and performance excellence firm. Terry is known for his dynamic presentations and writing in the fields of leadership, operational performance, and behavioral and cultural safety, and he is the coauthor of Lean Behavior-Based Safety: BBS for Today's Realities; Forecasting Tomorrow: The Future of Safety Excellence; Steps to Safety Culture Excellence; and Developing a Safety Culture: Successfully Involving the Entire Organization. Terry will also be presenting the opening keynote address titled What's Next for the Workplace Safety Professional: A 20/20 View on day one of the EHS Daily Advisor's upcoming Safety Summit taking place April 6th through 8th in Indianapolis, Indiana.
