Steve Davis wrote: “HR and Safety must work concurrently to ensure that the required safety training is performed. [Good job & task descriptions, implementation, supervision and enforcement are also needed – Terry K Welsh’s note]  Failure to coordinate and perform this training exposes the organization to legal regulatory actions and fines. …. be aware that regulatory agencies are communicating with each other. It is not uncommon that an OSHA enforcement action can result in referrals exposing your organization to the EPA and INS… When management recognizes that the true cost of an accident is four to six times the direct costs, it becomes apparent that excellent coordination can positively impact not only the bottom line of the company, but also the company’s ability to bid work in the construction arena…. This financial impact can easily reach hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars…”         

Rick Williams wrote:  “…there are skills and processes HR professionals bring to the organization that can help raise the bar when it comes to safety performance. Safety performance is about people. People must be motivated so that they are focused, alert and working to continuously improve. It requires leadership, commitment, and engagement.”
