Speaking Up for Safety

•
Right mindset – a conviction that safety is everyone’s
responsibility (I am my brother’s keeper.)
The four keys to giving someone safety feedback are:
1. Stay positive & show concern
2. Be clear about the unsafe behavior and its possible
consequences
3. Be specific about the behavior change needed
4. Ask for a commitment to change
