How to incentivise and compensate safety professionals

Today's Guest:

Corinne Carr is a Remuneration Consultant, Reward Coach and host of the Paying For Good Podcast.

I joined Corinne on her show to discuss health and safety bonuses, how we can use health and safety to incentivize people and the different industries that are effected by health and safety metrics.

We talk about the state of health and safety in the UK, the cost and impact of work related injuries and how legislation around health and safety has been changing.

Quotables:

• 16:49 - "These things are very expensive because it's not just the claim or the hospital bill, it's the investigation time, it's the admin, it's getting somebody to replace that person if their off work, it's the reputational cost aswell so there are a raft of costs that are less well understood."
• 18:40 - "If you're not showing continuous improvement then the fines are going to get worse and worse."
