Overview

Just culture is a concept that has been around for a number of years, but is still a goal rather than a reality in many organisations. In some of the most high-stakes sectors such as aviation and healthcare, where just culture has particular prevalence, there are valuable lessons to be learnt and important ongoing developments.

The free lunchtime webinar provides an overview of this valuable approach to safety, and looks at where it can help and where it can lead us if we apply it well.
