What is a Safety Moment?
25 February 2022
Safety Moments are a new tool that can be used to support teams to engage with health and safety through a less formal approach.
Actively talking about safety plays an important part in changing the perceptions of safety and can assist people in actively engaging and considering safety.
A Safety Moment is intended to be a short conversation with your colleagues about safety at the start of a meeting. It can be on any topic related to safety; regardless of whether directly work-related or not. The purpose is to allow reflections, observations, points of interest or personal experiences to be shared and which may be of interest to the rest of the group.
Supporting opportunities for regular conversations about safety will foster confidence in discussing and thinking about safety, which is why we encourage everybody involved in meetings at UCL to actively support the implementation of Safety Moments.
The Safety Moments Library will give you lots of inspiration
We have created a Safety Moments Library full of ideas and inspirations for topics and some ways you can present a Safety Moment in an engaging and creative manner.
