Join us for an interactive roundtable with three focused discussion tables exploring how to maintain momentum and impact in Serious Injury and Fatality (SIF) prevention programs over the long term. Many organisations launch successful initiatives, but sustaining engagement beyond the initial phase remains the biggest challenge. This session will dig into practical strategies for keeping programs fresh, credible, and deeply embedded in your culture.

  • Recognising and Overcoming Program Fatigue: common signs, strategies to reignite and discovering why most SIF prevention programs lose momentum after 12–24 months
  • Building Fatality Prevention into Your Culture: proactive approaches, making prevention part of your organisational DNA and leveraging evidence-based methods to sustain credibility and impact
  • Leadership Visibility and Everyday Integration: Maintaining ongoing leadership focus, embedding SIF prevention into daily operations and avoiding the trap of limiting focus to safety events or audits

Balancing Documentation & Compliance with Engaging, Effective Learning
9:45 am

In regulated industries like pharma and biopharma, training is often built to meet audit standards, not human memory but is a “read-and-sign” policy truly effective when 10% retention is the best-case scenario? This session explores how to balance regulatory compliance with human-centred, high-retention training that actually helps prevent injuries and improve safety.

  • How can we redesign training for impact, not just records?
  • Are your highest-risk tasks getting the most effective training?
  • Evaluating “read-and-sign” necessary or obsolete?
  • Discussing real examples of digital, blended, and peer-based training formats that work under compliance pressure
