Exchanging best practices to help each of us in ensuring a workplace are focused on: supporting the behavior-based safety at the same time that the company formalized a safety policy; strong and effective safety leaders and empowered and motivated employees/citizens are also very important. Also a good practice related to safety is based on comforting people with reporting regular communication about safety and health.
