Safety Ripple ‘Press Pause’ week
As we come to the end of Safety Ripple ‘Press Pause’ week, it’s been brilliant to see the energy, engagement and enthusiasm shown right across our sites and offices.
We launched the week in Kendal, proudly reinforcing that Safety Ripple is how we approach safety, health and wellbeing, with the VolkerStevin Way at its core. Partnering with Mindflow set the tone for the week, supported by some honest conversations around mental health in construction.
Throughout the week, Press Pause sessions took place across the business, creating space for our teams, supply chain partners and clients to come together and genuinely Press Pause to Talk. The conversations were proactive, inclusive and full of ideas - exactly what Safety Ripple is all about.
Our senior leadership team were out visiting sites, joining sessions and encouraging people at all levels to get involved. New ‘Press Pause to Talk’ conversation cards helped teams come together, supporting positive, future-focused discussions and empowering individuals to influence safe, considered decisions.
What’s been clear throughout the week is that when we create the right environment and have the right conversations, great things happen. People engage, opinions are shared, solutions are explored and ownership is taken.
A huge thank you to everyone involved for the commitment, honesty and energy shown throughout the week.
This is Safety Ripple in action.
