Effective supervisors are intentional and purposeful in promoting health and safety. They should perform regular safety activities, such as inspections, observations, investigations, or crew talks. Other activities may be linked to annual departmental safety plans. RMEAC - REGISTERED MASTER ELECTRICIAN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE • Engage workers in health and safety • Listen actively to what your workers and supervisors are telling you, and respond in a timely and appropriate way. If your workers know you are open to listening to, and addressing their questions and concerns, they will be more likely to let you know if there are any unsafe conditions or behaviors in the workplace. Your workers can be your eyes and ears on the frontline to report health and safety concerns, solutions, and suggestions for improvement. RMEAC - REGISTERED MASTER ELECTRICIAN AFFAIRS COMMITTEE
