Mousa Yassin Season 1 Episode 5

Becky Peavler's journey from the military to her current role as global chief health and safety assurance at ConocoPhillips has shaped her leadership and emphasizes the importance of safety in companies.

Safety is foundational for business efficiency and directly impacts the company's bottomline.

Incidents can have serious consequences, from shutting down jobs to emotional impacts on the workforce.

Safety leaders play a crucial role in understanding the gaps between the plan and actual work conditions, designing effective controls, and prioritizing the safety of the workforce.

A commitment to a learning organization, curiosity, and continuous improvement are essential for enhancing safety culture.

Becky highlights the importance of listening to the workforce and creating a supportive environment where they feel comfortable sharing concerns and ideas.

She also mentions the adoption of technology, such as drones, to improve safety measures.

Ultimately, the focus should be on identifying hazards, implementing appropriate controls, and promoting a culture of safety where everyone looks out for each other.
