Presenter: Tom McQuiston, Dr. P.H., United Steelworkers, Tony Mazzocchi Center for Health, Safety and Environmental Education

Topics Covered:

Optimization must:  

• Happen at multiple levels not just activity level
• Give workers and their representatives a real say commensurate with their stake
• Push programs towards modern systems of safety views and approaches
• Push programs away from behavior based programs that limit reporting and focus attention onto workers’ so called unsafe behaviors
• Provide workers and their representatives the time and resources necessary for full participation.
