Hello Safety Analytics Community Members,

I hope all is well! We are just under one week away from our June Safety Analytics Community Conversation and want to make you aware of a quick update on the session taking place. On Tuesday, June 22nd at 2:00 PM CT, we’ll be joined by Mike Quashne, Manager, Performance Assessment and Business Transformation at Baltimore Gas & Electric, who will be leading a discussion around, Scientifically Proven Safety. As this discussion is interactive, we encourage you to come prepared ready to ask questions and share your insight.

Session Description:

This session will discuss three projects performed as a partnership between construction industry safety leaders and a team of researchers at the University of Colorado through the Construction Safety Research Alliance (CSRA). These projects aim to move the safety profession, including related analytics, away from theory and toward defendable science. Topics include the statistical invalidity of TRIR, energy-based safety, and measuring the quality of safety leading indicator activities.
