HSE Directors are deeply immersed in the day-to-day realities of workplace health and safety, while executives and boards focus on safety from a governance and compliance standpoint. This difference in perspectives often leads to misalignment in priorities, expectations, and accountability, creating gaps that hinder the effectiveness of safety initiatives.
The result is fragmented safety programs, inconsistent messaging, and missed opportunities to develop a unified industry approach. Executives, boards, and HSE leaders all have a critical role to play in bridging this divide—fostering collaboration across industries, enabling benchmarking, and ensuring safety is embedded within business strategy rather than operating in isolation.
Currently, no single body exists to bring key organisational stakeholders together across industries to share insights from significant WHS incidents, discuss regulatory challenges, and work collectively to address emerging risks that threaten workplace safety outcomes. Safety Sphere is designed to fill this gap, creating a platform where governance and management come together to shape the future of WHS.
Join our chair of our Industry advisory committee for Safety Sphere and advisory committee members as we share insights on how your company can become a member and the long term benefits this newly established industry body will bring to the future of our industry.
