Interesting moments from the interview:
-
Reimagining well-being
Energy sector leaders must be cognizant of this new world of work and develop unique solutions that balance industry needs and employee priorities. It also broadens the safety domain from the physical safety only of the past to physical safety, physical wellness, mental health, and psychological safety. -
Improving Worker Health
The end goal of the total worker health program is to improve all aspects of worker health so that workers are prepared for and can sustain the demands placed on them by their day-to-day workplace. -
Addressing the talent shortage
There is a significant loss of expertise. The baby boomer generation is retiring and organizations are really struggling to identify and retain new talent. And all this is happening while the domain of safety is expanding as well. -
Building sustainable organizations
Total worker health can be leveraged to build more sustainable organizations that retain talent longer while addressing physical, mental, and psychological safety.
