Health & Safety Executive (HSE) has called on Directors to demonstrate personal commitment and spend more time outside the boardroom to show they really care about health and safety.
Judith Hackitt, Chair of the HSE, in the annual Rivers Lecture, told the audience last night (18 March) of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators in London:
"Personal responsibility is fundamental to credibility and strong leadership. The first requirement is to get outside of the Boardroom - visit workstations and talk to staff. Ask them what their health and safety concerns are and show genuine interest in and consideration for their response."

HSE Tells Directors Lead by Actions not Words
"Today’s workplace has become heartless and soulless. Employees are seen as units of labour, automatons, functionaries, objects for achieving designated tasks, and as costs to be minimised."
