Day 1

Develop and Maintain a Positive Safety Culture

Learn how to implement a safety culture based on the experience of DuPont and other participants.

Study a real fatal accident in a factory and the aspects to be dealt with accordingly: legal procedures, internal and external communication with employees, victims’ families, local and national press, etc. This session underlines the importance of strong leadership and the implementation of an action plan and working methods upstream in order to avoid this type of event.

Day 2

Day 4
