Description

The best PPE is the PPE that gets worn. Knowing what PPE your worksite needs is one thing, knowing what your crew wants is quite another. Safety Superhero Abby Ferri and Greg Schrab (Ergodyne SVP of Product Mgmt) help us go beyond the basics to track the trends in PPE and discuss what’s hot, what’s not and what’s hip, now and wow.


Show Highlights:

  • How frontline managers are selling safety to their workers (and why the  words they use matter) 
  • What you're saying about the value of your workforce with the gear you provide 
  • The critical connection between worker feedback and high-performing (and highly coveted) PPE
  • Catching up with the latest and greatest work gear wonders


Featured Guests:


Abby Ferri, Safety & Risk Management Consultant, Podcaster (Safety Justice League), Author (The Safety Habit)


Greg Schrab, Senior VP of Product Management, Ergodyne
