The word “Safety Share” is used to qualify the act of sharing safety information to enhance safety awareness and to prevent accident.
It can be done in a forum, group or in form of an advocacy where safety information is passed, safety stories shared or lessons learnt shared. It can also be in a written material, video clip, banners, posters, etc.
The intent is to maximize the function of sharing widely across the industry and to build a library of valuable safety-related moments from which others could benefit. These can be anything that will help others be safe at work, home or anyplace else.
