Courageous Safety Leadership

Case Study: Courageous Safety Leadership (CSL) – Creating a Culture of Safety at Teck

This case study was originally published in our .

At Teck safety is more than a priority; it is an unchanging value and an inherent part of who we are. We strive to be a company where “Everyone Goes Home Safe and Healthy Every Day.” CSL is a safety philosophy which challenges existing values, beliefs and attitudes towards safety and outlines the changes required to instill a true culture of safety. CSL requires personal leadership and emotional connections to drive the change. From our first safety and health conference in 2005, to benchmarking best practices across other companies in 2008, to launching and implementing a company-wide CSL Program in 2009, imbedding safety in our culture has been a progressive journey.
