    Speaker Notes:

    Safety too often is considered only an operations issue.

    Safety & Health need to be framed in the entire business context.

    Senior management understand business strategy and finance. Justifications for safety need to consider both the strategic and financial impacts.

    Safety problems in the work place generally arise from not considering the organizational culture (e.g., productivity pressures) or from correctly marketing/communicating risks to employees.
