This week, we dive deep into an eye-opening conversation with I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, founder/CEO of ID2 Solutions and fellow podcast host of Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast. As a veteran firefighter and now a seasoned occupational health and safety expert, David’s insight shines a powerful light on psychosocial safety. David shares deeply personal experiences, from facing life-or-death situations in the fire service to losing 30 colleagues, and how these tragic events shaped his understanding of psychological safety in the workplace. “The number one reason that fire rescue folks and EMS folks are losing their lives now is death by suicide… It's the culmination of psychosocial hazard exposure over the course of their life and career.” — Dr. I. David Daniels This conversation goes beyond the traditional view of safety, challenging us to think differently about how we protect workers' mental well-being, not just their physical health. Some other standouts for us - ▹ How psychosocial hazards are just as critical as physical safety for a company’s financial success ▹ How we must consider the environment and not only human behaviour, when looking at bringing change andt create a physically AND mentally safe workplace. ▹ The growing crisis of mental health and suicide in high-risk jobs much like it is for first responders Tune in to this powerful episode; safety truly starts with understanding the emotional and psychological risks that impact us all. And it begins with us. 🎧 Link in first comment below 👇 #healthandsafetytraining  #hse #wecare #hseprofessionals #safetyculture #safetyfirst #safetytraining #safetyeducation #leadership #leadershipdevelopment #hseleaders #hseleadership #psychologicalsafety #psychosocialhazards Mousa Yassin

The pre-sale for the new book by I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS starts TODAY! Take a look at https://lnkd.in/eBDZFnb9. The campaign lasts through October 18, 2024.

The pre-sale campaign for the new book written by our Founder/CEO I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, starts this coming Monday. He has recorded this video to discuss it a bit. Please be on the lookout for an opportunity to access a special campaign webpage starting September 16th. The pre-sale effort is for those who want to be on the "early bird " list to get a copy of the book, a ticket to the launch event, and join a community interested in following the book's progress to publication. There will also be other unique opportunities to get the book's message to an organization or group near you through services provided by ID2 Solutions. Dr. Daniels is also interested in chatting with folks in the author community not only about completing the book but about other thoughts that they might have about how to increase the possibility that #psychosocialhazards in the American workplace will someday receive the same kind of attention as #physicalhazards. This book and weekly conversations on the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast are for a reason. We're on a crusade to convince folks in the United States that #psychosocialhazardsarereal!

Get ready; the Pre-Sale Campaign is a little over a week away! For those who have been following these notes over the past few weeks, you know that there is a book in the hopper. There is a rumor of a potential “leak“ of a video describing the book soon, but according to the schedule we're working with, the webpage to get your pre-sale orders in won’t be live until likely the morning of September 16th. It’s looking like there is a lot of interest. We have requests from multiple countries and multiple requests for many copies, including requests for signed hard copies for folks' coffee tables. While I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, talks in the book about how this hazard can be handled, but that’s not the goal. We perceive and experience the world differently; therefore, our vulnerability and risk from psychosocial hazard exposure vary greatly. This book is intended to help people realize that psychosocial hazards are “a thing,” but not necessarily focused on what to do about it. There are a lot of great ways to address these hazards, including effective job/position descriptions, objective recruitment, and selection processes, training based on the position one is assigned to,  kind and compassionate leadership, a priority on both psychological and physical safety, living wages, appropriate benefits, and the list goes on. The other really neat part about the pre-sale campaign is the community gathering to continue the journey to complete the book and those who will decide to join the movement to see more workplaces in the United States become safer and more human-centered places. Again, thank you for all the interest so far; it’s getting exciting. Stay tuned for the big reveal! More to come. #psychosocialhazardsarereal #workplacementalhealth ID2 Solutions

Our founder/CEO, I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, has been asked by the Healthcare Compliance Industry Workgroup of the National Association of Black Compliance & Risk Management Professionals, Inc. (NABCRMP) to speak during a virtual event next Monday, Sept. 9th, about #psychologicalsafety in organizations that exist for compliance purposes. Compliance and psychological safety are not opposed concepts. The safer people feel psychologically, the more comfortable they are in identifying intentional and unintentional compliance issues. Policies protecting an organization's fiscal and financial health should not punish otherwise well-meaning human beings for following the rules. To register, go to https://lnkd.in/e9WxXqBT

Founder /CEO I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS is writing a book! Writing a book is quite an undertaking, but this has been his most exciting work. He's already a bit of a night owl, but this project motivated him to stay up later, even more often, as he was working on the project targets. He met each target along the way, and it looks like the book will be completed on time in the spring of next year. You may wonder why it takes so long. Well, the process he's using to write the book is a cohort-based concept. Now comes the first stage of the marketing process. Dr. Daniels' team indicates that the book pre-sale campaign will begin on September 16, 2024! This campaign will be more than an opportunity to reserve a book; though he's hopeful you’ll consider doing that, it is an opportunity to solidify your seat as a member of his “author community.” He's been working with them on several items that he hopes you’ll like, including a reservation for a copy of the book (at the head of the line), opportunities to join the community that will get insider information on the book and an invitation to both a virtual book launch,  as well as a few other opportunities for groups, organizations, and companies. He's hoping that many of you will consider participating in the pre-sale. It will help the publisher determine how many books need to be produced to be ready for the official launch. Look out for the link to the pre-sale webpage as soon as possible. #psychosocialhazardsarereal #workplacementalhealth ID2 Solutions

Seriously? How could anyone think is is a good idea to not have anyone at the federal level responsible for worker safety? Politics aside, it takes humans to do work to make the money that seems to be these folks real priority. If workers are injured or killed, it costs the employers more. This doesn't seem like the best idea.
