Brandon Little on LinkedIn: I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Corporate… (2024)

I absolutely enjoy working in Occupational Safety, Health and Environmental management roles.My journey started in 1980 with learning about implementing OSHA and EPA regulations, at an industrial equipment and chemical sales company. Quickly, I became the in house trainer for our customers on equipment safe operations and safe storage/use/disposal of the cleaning chemicals we sold.When I started my own company selling and manufacturing water blasting equipment, It became quickly apparent that I must align to OSHA, EPA, NFPA, NEC and some other ones to avoid Tort Court losses. I even created a training for water blasters safe use and in many hazardous locations.Never did lose to a product liability court caseHaving trained Safety Programs, Defensive Driving (all classes), Food Safety / security, building services and CPR/AED with first aid, I learned to communicate to and with adults at work.Having also owned businesses or run businesses for others, my understanding of OSHA and other regulations importance to workers, quality and client satisfaction is different. I saw how Congress originally intended Management to hold the safety responsibility. With the 'whole picture' understanding, I now help the workers 'Want To do Safety', by teaching the 'Why' it is in their best interest. This approach works very well if you do it correctly with sincerity.I hope that anyone responsible for, or employed in 'Safety at Work', is not a 'By The Book Only' thinker. Just a Safety Cop.Here is what ASSP published about it in 2021From article titled: What Is the Role of a Safety Officer in the Workplace?No matter the specific wording you see in a job description, it’s important to understand that a safety officerisn’t:- A “safety cop,” a pejorative industry term for a safety professional who merely enforces safety rules and ignores thewhyand the relationships that are key to effectiveness.- A security or public safety officer, like you might find on the campus of a college or medical facility.- An OSHA compliance officer, who works for theOccupational Safety and Health Administrationand comes to job sites to enforce safety regulations.People in safety need these skills if they are to succeed;Effective communicationEmpathyAbility to InfluenceBusiness AcumenAbility to Train and MentorInvestigation fundamentals Conflict Resolution skillsPublic Speaking abilityKnowledge of the subject.Anyone entering this filed has chosen a Nobel cause. It is to give workers knowledge and understanding to keep themselves, others and the work environment free from harm.RegardsBrian

Nice. In addition to hand safety, this should save a few legs, too.
