SafeAlign™
Equipping leaders for safety excellence with SafeAlign™
Safety leadership principles and practices are not just for executives, they are also critical for supervisors and managers who execute the organization’s objectives every day. Our leadership development program targets these groups, honing their skills as safety leaders.
Mid-level leaders provide the first line of defense in managing safety issues, communicating organizational priorities and values, and building relationships with individual team members. Yet this group more than any other is often left out of safety improvement efforts.
The key objectives of our safety leadership development program remedy this omission by aligning supervisors, managers, leaders and leaders of leaders with safety objectives. SafeAlign™ helps organizations develop critical safety leadership skills at every level, translate safety visions into safety action, set targets for exposure reduction and sustainable safety performance and track progress with a customized technology solution — the DEKRA Safety Platform.
