OHS Construction Leadership for Employers

About Us

An organization’s health and safety culture is dynamic, constantly evolving and can be impacted at any time in a positive or negative way. By measuring your safety culture, you can understand where your organization is at and potentially where it is heading. This information is critical in order to continue to strengthen your safety culture and ultimately reduce the potential for injuries, illnesses and fatalities.

The Center for Construction Research and Training (CPWR) has created an online resource called the Safety Climate-Safety Management Information System (SC-SMIS) that construction companies can use to improve their safety culture. Part of the SC-SMIS is a Safety Climate Assessment Tool (S-CAT) which enables companies to measure and strengthen their safety culture across eight leading indicators.
