Are there adequate systems of consultation about occupational safety and health issues at your company? Do you think safety representatives have a role in promoting a positive safety culture at your company? Have your say! The Health and Safety Authority is running an anonymous online survey on the topic of consultation and safety representatives. The survey can be completed by employers, employees, safety representatives, safety officers, and occupational safety and health professionals (i.e., NOT just safety representatives). It runs until mid June 2024, and is accessible at this link: https://lnkd.in/db9ARy6E The purpose of this survey is to obtain information about consultation and the perception and role of safety representatives. The HSA will use the insights from this survey to promote consultation and the safety representative’s role and to develop resources. Please promote participation in this survey with your network. #consultation, #safetyrepresentatives, #occupationalsafetyandhealth, #safetyculture, #responsiblework
