The programmes within the resource are specifically designed to support Indian organisations seeking to develop, maintain and enhance a positive health and safety culture. At the event, participants were shown how it is possible to introduce and maintain a safety culture within organisations. They were provided with detailed insights into the tools, models, and frameworks that companies could use to build a safety culture.Speaking of the event, Hemant Sethi, Country Head, India, British Safety Council, said, "We are delighted that our programme on Safety Culture Change has been well received. This shows that Indian companies are aligned with promoting safer and healthier workplaces. We have designed this programme keeping in mind the Indian business ethos and objectives. Going by what we have seen, we are confident more companies will take the programme thereby pledging to make their workplaces safer and more productive."The event lasted for six hours and comprised an interactive lively workshop that offered a step-by-step breakdown of how companies can move the needle from having an unfocussed and reactive approach to safety, to establishing a proactive and exemplary safety culture. The workshop was supported with examples, case studies, videos, role-playing exercises, and experience sharing.Sharing his experience of the event, Pramod Sapra, President, Shapoorji Pallonji Bumi Armada said, "Step Change in Safety Culture was a unique experience.
