About the Industrial Safety SeminarINJURIES ARE COSTLY

According to statistics released by the Association of Workers Compensation Boards of Canada, 10,519 time-loss injuries and 35 workplace fatalities occurred in Saskatchewan in 2013. Each of these incidents incur huge costs for businesses in Saskatchewan. With each passing year, the average cost associated with each injury and fatality increases.

More importantly, the psychological and physical costs that these workers and their families sustain because of the injuries are reason enough to ensure that your work environments are as safe as they can possibly be. It is for this reason that the Saskatchewan Safety Council created the Industrial Safety Seminar.

WHAT IS THE INDUSTRIAL SAFETY SEMINAR?

Industry has known for many years that safety doesn’t cost - it pays. The 1st Annual Industrial Safety Seminar was held in 1974. Started by a group of concerned individuals, the aim of the conference was to give safety professionals in Saskatchewan a forum to discuss areas of common concern. It was an opportunity to bring a high quality safety event to the province.

Since 1974, the event has grown to become Saskatchewan’s premier safety show and one of the largest events of its type in western Canada. The 43rd Annual Industrial Safety Seminar will feature 24 educational sessions with speakers from Saskatchewan, Canada and the United States. It will also feature one of the largest displays of safety equipment and services in western Canada with 105 display booths.

The 43rd Annual Industrial Safety Seminar will take place on February 1, 2, and 3, 2016 at Prairieland Exhibition Park, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

WHO WILL ATTEND THE INDUSTRIAL SAFETY SEMINAR?

The Industrial Safety Seminar, although aimed primarily at business and industry, is open to anyone interested in safety. Average attendance in the past 3 years was over 750 delegates per year representing Safety Managers and Professionals, Occupational Health and Safety Committee Members, Supervisors and interested small businesses and individuals. Delegates represent a large cross section of Saskatchewan industries including mining, utilities, oil & gas and construction, Provincial and Federal regulatory agencies, crown corporations and private companies.

The Industrial Safety Seminar is an excellent opportunity for new or experienced safety practitioners to attend professional development sessions with experts on a variety of current safety related topics. It is also an opportunity for all those interested in safety to network with like minded people while expanding their safety knowledge.

Session Block A: 1:30 pm - 2:45 pm

Training for Competency in a Marginally Literate Workforce Glyn Jones

The issue of literacy of our workers can be a bit of a taboo topic. The reality is over 50% of employees in Canada do not have the literacy levels required in the workplace today. We have become a nation of “marginally literates”.

Workplace training programs must be designed and developed recognizing the issue of marginal literacy of the general population. Employees that we have working in, what might be called “safety critical” positions, must be provided with the education and training needed to ensure competency regardless of their literacy level.

This is a “how to” session, explaining how to identify and assess the extent to which marginal illiteracy is a concern at your workplace and how to design your safety education, training and assessment tools to account for it.

Water Safety in an Occupational Setting Shelby Rushton

Drowning and aquatic injury is a leading cause of death in Canada. Most people who drown do not even expect to be in the water.

Lone Worker Safety Panel Discussion

Working alone can present numerous and unique challenges for worker safety in an organization. Almost every industry has jobs that routinely require workers to be alone for short or extended periods of time. Safety Managements Systems must account for these unique challenges and find ways to adapt the principles of hazard identification and risk mitigation to the diverse challenges faced by lone workers.

This session will feature a panel representing different industries and businesses that will highlight the different challenges their organizations have encountered as well practical solutions they have implemented.

Verbal Edge Pt. 1 of 2Don Beahm CRSP, CHSC

Today’s industrial leaders are faced with an ever increasing responsibility to ensure that workers follow industry regulation and company rules. Verbal Edge is an effective and useful communication tool that can go into any manager or supervisor’s toolbox.

Verbal Edge is a tactical communications system that stresses the importance of the professional mindset, removing the negative emotions that derail most difficult encounters by replacing them with a delivery style that is designed to diffuse even the most difficult encounters. These tactics have been demonstrated to be effective even under the most extreme circumstances.

Verbal Edge is designed to provide industry leadership with the skills necessary to remain calm while calming others down - generating voluntary compliance to company rules and industry regulations. Should their words fail, they will

The Mystery of Anchor Points: Is My Rescue Plan Effective?Tom Hamann

Tom’s presentation is designed to clarify some of the muddy waters that we have to navigate through when creating fall protection programs and plans. In all industries there is often great confusion regarding what makes a suitable anchor point. What can I “tie off to?” is a very common question that is often answered with confusing or unclear responses.

Lyle survived his teenage years by participating in Sport as a means of keeping him in school. At one point a program in Regina called Youth Unlimited noticed his responsible attitude and hired him to supervise a gym 3 or 4 nights a week. This also caused some of his friends to be involved and kept the young people playing sport rather than finding ways of getting into trouble. This is a model that can be used in any community. A trained facilitator, Lyle was hired to deliver the Aboriginal Cultural Awareness Program (ACAP) with the First Nations University of Canada. Lyle has been active in providing training in Aboriginal Leadership and Aboriginal Awareness. Lyle has worked with groups like, Rawlco Radio, the University of Saskatchewan, the Saskatoon Police Service, Farm Credit Canada, the Office of the Treaty Commissioner and many others.

Ensuring Everyone’s Safety in Work ZonesWade Hoffman

In a growing economy expanding and maintaining infrastructure is fundamental. The purpose of public roadways is to facilitate the movement of goods and people safely. The presence of workers within a roadway creates interruptions to the normal conditions the motorist expects to encounter. For commuting drivers, proffesional drivers and roadway workers, understanding the fundamentals of traffic accomodation is vitally important to ensure everyone goes home safe.

This presentation will discuss the fundamentals of traffic accomodation that applies to municiple and highway locations. It will also address the myths or misunderstandings that are common to help achieve the highest level of safety when sharing the road.

Healthy Workplaces and Mental Health: Strategies for Balance and Prevention Centre for Canadian Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS)

According to the World Health Organization’s Healthy Workplace Model, the Psychosocial Work Environment or Workplace Mental Health is just one of four “avenues of influence” to help organizations create and grow healthy workplaces. For balance, healthy workplaces also need safe physical work environments, access to personal health resources and community enterprise involvement.

This session will help managers, supervisors and worker representatives use proven frameworks, tools and resources. Learn how workplaces can plan, prioritize and customize promotion to both protect worker health and advance worker’s well-being. Join a workplace cultural evolution - from raising awareness to integrating healthy workplace prevention culture initiatives within strategic action plans.

What attendees will learn:- how to support workers challenged with mental health issues while balancing the needs of workplace teams- what tools and resources are available that can help managers and supervisors to reduce stigma of mental health issues and create prevention opportunities for constructive dialogue and awareness, including workplace stress reduction and management- how the CSA’s Psychological Standard for Health and Safety in the Workplace can be used as a starting point for creating a more inclusive workplace culture plus the recognition of how work affects health

Established in 1978, CCOHS promotes the total well‐being ‐ physical, psychosocial and mental health ‐ of working Canadians by providing information, training, education, management systems and solutions that support health, safety and wellness programs. A not‐for‐profit federal department corporation, CCOHS is governed by a tripartite Council ‐ representing government, employers and labour ‐ to ensure a balanced, approach to workplace health and safety issues. We offer a range of workplace health and safety services to help your organization raise awareness, assess risks, implement prevention programs, and improve health, safety and well‐being.

Aging Drivers in the WorkforceLee Carlson

We are an aging population. In many cases mature workers are coming back into the workforce after early retirement and we often have employees staying in the workplace at older ages than ever before. Driving is a significant part of our lives through both personal and work activities. As we age, we undergo significant changes both psychological and physical that can affect our driving. These changes that we experience often begin during the mid - 50’s age range and as we get older, these changes will become more prominent.

The presentation includes provincial statistics and outlines some of the most common concerns faced with older drivers in our society along with things we need to pay attention to in ourselves and others around us as we age. It will also discuss what we can do to compensate for the changes that will affect all of us.

Lee Carlson is a Safety Consultant and Instructor with the Saskatchewan Safety Council focusing on the areas of Defensive Driving; Professional Driver Improvement; Advanced Collision Avoidance and the Mature Driver refresher program.

KEYNOTE: Safety is a TEAM Game Ryan Walter

We connect with our audience around the theme of increasing positivity in their cultures, developing (leading) their team-spirit and understanding where their people are emotionally along the 5 stages of team continuum. The premise is that “tight” teams look out for each other and “tight” teams develop the courage to confront and hold each other accountable in order to stay safe.

Ryan Walter played more than 1000 games over 15 seasons in the National Hockey League. Drafted second overall by the Washington Capitals in 1978, Ryan was named the youngest NHL captain in his second of 4 seasons, played 9 seasons and won a Stanley Cup with the Montreal Canadiens, and returned to his home town to play his last 2 seasons for the Vancouver Canucks. He was named Team Canada Captain in the World Junior Tournament, became a Vice‐President of the National Hockey League Players Association, and was honoured as NHL Man of the Year. Ryan has been inducted into the BC Hockey Hall of Fame, the Burnaby Sports Hall of Fame, named to the 30 all‐time Washington Capitals’ Dream team, the top 50 all‐time BCHL players and the top 100 Montreal Canadiens in 100 years. Ryan has a Master of Arts Degree in Leadership/Business. He is the author of 5 books and an expert contributor to both online and print magazines, newspapers, radio, and television. Ryan serves on the Hockey Canada Foundation’s Board of Directors and is a member of the Seton Hall Stillman School of Business Leadership Advisory Council.Ryan won a Gold Medal as Head Coach of Canada’s National Women’s Hockey Team, was Assistant Coach of the Vancouver Canucks, co‐founder and president of two start‐up companies, a TV and radio hockey analyst, a hockey adviser and actor for both television and movies, the creator of the board game Trade Deadline Hockey, and the President of a professional hockey team.
