CRITICAL RISK INDUSTRY SHARING SESSIONS
Critical risks (any risks that could cause significant harm or loss of life) should be a top priority for any business in considering controls to safeguard workers. Lots of great solutions are developed at a business level in silos, but very rarely get shared wider than the business itself.
